What It’s Like to Be a Student Who Hates ChatGPT “Everyone is using it”—almost everyone.

you've heard about the college kids who can't do anything without ChatGPT's help—but what about the students who oppose generative A.I. for myriad reasons and refuse to rely on it as a shortcut? well, I found and spoke with a few of them here: slate.com/life/2025/07...

Mahmoud Khalil and Mohsen Mahdawi have alleged that Davidai targeted them and called for them to be deported in the lead-up to their arrests by ICE. interc.pt/4nwdliu

They don't ask me about stuff like this because I would be curious how conservative you gotta be? Do you have to have voted at least twice for certain candidates? Believe that birthright citizenship isn't real? What's the litmus test you're using to implement this folks? They can ask JHU I guess...

NEW: When university president Gregory Washington received notice that the Trump administration had opened an investigation into complaints of antisemitism, he was “perplexed.”

But there are signs it may be part of a coordinated campaign to oust him.

A legend!

Elizabeth Page-Gould recognized with Career Trajectory Award from the Society for Experimental Social Psychology The Society for Experimental Social Psychology has recognized Elizabeth Page-Gould with a Career Trajectory Award in recognition of uniquely creative and influential scholarly productivity.

She is far too un-self-promoting to do this herself, so I'm shouting out *THE* Elizabeth Page-Gould (@page-gould.bsky.social) for winning the SESP Career Trajectory Award!

Liz is the reason they had to invent the high-warmth/high competence quadrant. She is such a gem and so damn deserving of this.

Fourth Annual Dissertation Research Grants Awarded The Russell Sage Foundation is pleased to announce 29 awards made in the fourth round of its Dissertation Research Grants program.

When the prayers go up, the blessings come down.

I am so excited to share that I’ve been selected as a 2025 Russell Sage Foundation Dissertation Fellow for my co-authored work on how to disrupt hiring discrimination. Shoutout to @aaronsojourner.org who has recommended I apply for this for years! 🫡

As I prepared myself for being a professor of education and public policy during the current administration, I spent a lot of time thinking about people like W. E. B. Du Bois and Ida B. Wells who used their skills and talent to share data and rigorous analysis in dangerous times

I, a very fancy professor at the state flagship university with a named lil mini endowment, teach in a room where my only option is to use chalkboards or a quite old manual projector and I must bring my laptop from home because there is no computer in the room. But sure, do this.

I believe this position is aiming to recruit international (i.e., outside of Canada) talent :)

A global minimum tax on the ultrarich could change planetary politics. Right now South Africa, Chile, France, and Spain are pushing for it

"Though Wu was never charged, Northwestern reassigned her grant funding, closed her lab and forcibly admitted her to the university’s psychiatric hospital..."

American academia is actively hostile to the health, well being and survival of women of color.

The China Initiative never should have happened. Period. But even putting that aside, forcibly admitting someone to a psychiatric hospital is supposed to be a last resort. As someone who's had it happen, I know that in practice, it's often done strategically to make something loud quiet.

Such a hard story to read about a woman in science who was clearly passionate about what she did — and excellent at it — and had that taken from her because she was Chinese.

May she rest in peace. 🧪

“Northwestern reassigned her grant funding, closed her lab and FORCIBLY ADMITTED HER TO THE UNIVERSITY’s PSYCHOATRIC HOSPITAL”

Never ever ever forget how racist the China initiative was, how it was pushed by both parties, and how it ruined the careers and terrorized the lives of many scientists.

Northwestern sued over suicide of professor targeted in China investigation The estate of Northwestern University Professor Jane Wu, who died by suicide last year after being investigated in a controversial federal probe, is suing the school for allegedly discriminating ag…

"Andrea Chu, the Midwest organizing director for Asian American Advancing Justice Chicago, said that Wu’s death shows the “devastating” impact of the China Initiative."

HOUSE FLOOR LATEST: It's 206-216 right now.

All 212 Democrats have showed up and voted NO. So unless one of the 4 Republican NOs flips, this rule to advance Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" is toast.

Black emergency department patients less likely to be treated with opioids – and more likely to misuse them later as a result Patients suffering from acute pain whose opioid treatment preferences were not met during an emergency department visit are at elevated risk for misusing them three months later. This was particularly...

My first first-author paper on faculty got a nice @uclahealth.org press release. It’s one of the first studies (the first tbh) to link racial disparities in pain treatment, patient satisfaction & risk of opioid misuse in a single framework using longitudinal data.

So my academic friends who run quant surveys… did we know that qualtrics included a section about using data to train genAI in their privacy statement? Are u including this in ur IRB? Cuz ppl I’m asking say they didn’t know and this is not my neck of the woods (I am a qual researcher lol)
