Michigan State is still using D2L. My kids HS is using Google Classroom... which DEFINITELY feels safe. 🫣

How ubiquitous is Canvas? We don't use that platform in my/my kids schools.

Night hangs like a prisoner
Stretched over black and blue

Hear their heartbeats
We hear their heartbeats

In the trees our sons stand naked
Through the walls our daughters cry

See their tears in the rainfall

Midnight, our sons and daughters
Were cut down and taken from us

Hear their heartbeats
We hear their heartbeats

In the wind we hear their laughter
In the rain we see their tears

Hear their heartbeats
We hear their heartbeats

About β€” The New York Philosophy Club The epicenter of public philosophy in New York City, offering free philosophy events, discussions, and debates for all levels.

If we agree to use these "social" mediums for public discourse, we agree to selling the validity of public discourse for another's profit.

Reestablishing local, in person, spaces for public discourse seems essential to solving this problem. This seems like a good model: www.nyphilosophy.org/about

Dear Alex, my reference to legal representation was purely to denote that I do not have the legal expertise required to respond to your allegations concerning federal and or state law.

Again, Alex, H-Net has not received anything credible from actual legal representatives representing the State of Michigan or any other individual or institution. Expect to hear from our legal representatives.

"We're all in this together!"

You've heard it, you've likely said it, but how do we realize this optimistic solidarity when the funding for our work in higher education has been so dramatically reduced across the board?
