Devastating.

Implying Black, male, disabled, and young children (the populations disproportionate discipline data prove to be vulnerable to adult’s exclusionary practices) are β€œstudents who should have been suspended or expelled” is repulsive and racist. Changing this accountability sucks.

West Ada teacher stands firm after she’s told to remove β€˜Everyone is welcome here’ signs Sarah Inama said she was told by administrators that her signs β€œdon’t allow people to express differing opinions.”

A teacher in Idaho has been told to remove posters reading "Everyone is welcome here" - specifically because it features different skin tones. As I wrote last week, this is a global political movement that has explicitly set the goal of eradicating the very concept of equality.

The public really needs to understand this. Every university system in the world rests on public funding, there has never been an alternative model at any time in history.

We have universities for literally the same reason that we have roads and armies.

One of my favorite IES resources are the practice guides. There are 5 guides with the research about teaching math. Given the two stop work orders I received last night (to stop work on 2 upcoming IES STEM practice guides), I'd download these now.

When you tell someone, 'if you call this person a girl, you're a sex offender', you further confirm the accusation that you want LGBTQ+ people AND their allies registered as sex offenders.

Are you connecting the dots yet?

(Also non-scientists, and scientists without federal funding! But the more of us who can directly speak to the impacts of these freezes the better)

White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

I think some people hear β€œgrants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

β€œPausing” grants means people don’t eat.

I am an early career researcher who just got their first TT job days before the inauguration. I thought I was trained well for my career. However, I wasn’t trained in how to support public education while the government is actively trying to get rid of public education.
