Yesterday, those who teach Intro to Sociology at Florida colleges (as opposed to universities) received a ready-made curriculum from the state and were ordered to teach it.
Yes, you read that correctly. The *state* is enforcing a curriculum on college profs, complete w/ the following restrictions:

I hate how much of my time is spent disabling AI in all my software.
I’m hiring a postdoc! Flexible in terms of details, but I’m looking for someone to collaborate with on research about labor market inequality. I’ll review applications as they come in and the posting just went up here:

Sad to hear of Stew Tolnay’s passing. He was the first person to invite me to coffee when I started working here and gave incredible feedback on my work. He will be missed.
Cool paper. A lot of work!
"immigrants who completed the naturalization process attained significantly higher occupational status than those who initiated but did not complete naturalization"
I'm trying to find some sociology papers to bring into my intro statistics course for grad students. Straightforward quant analyses where the data are publicly available. Does anyone have any suggestions?
What game is this and how are you keeping score?
Ending birthright citizenship would increase the undocumented population by 5.4 million by 2075: www.migrationpolicy.org/news/birthri...
Picking berries is a blood sport that I enjoy.
Congrats, Nathan!!!
I plan to start all my future papers by saying where I gave talks on it before publication.
My university is removing our landlines from our offices to save costs. The thing is I ripped my landline out of the wall the moment I got here because it rang and I didn’t know how to use it.
But then what would I use when I use thanks sarcastically for the comments I think are wrong.
Shout out to @caitlinpatler.bsky.social for her hard work on this. I’m happy for the small part I played in this, too.

Has anyone done a FOIA request at the National Archives?
For my inaugural post on this app, I'd like to invite anyone attending #PAA2025 to come to my talk! I'm very excited to attend my first PAA @popassocamerica.bsky.social meeting and share this research (and hopefully get good feedback as I refine and revise).
If you have leads on academic or academic-adjacent jobs that would make sense, I'd greatly appreciate to hear from you.

Surveillance from a “small army” of private citizens never stops at immigrants. See the American Protective League during WWI.
