A friendly reminder that as of June 2024, Johns Hopkins' endowment is over $13 BILLION. That's up $3 billion from June 2023. Are you telling me that those 2,000 workers cost you $3 billion ($1.5 million each)? Even with restrictions, you have the money! Give me a fucking break.

UMass has a $1.5 BILLION endowment. Up 31% since 2019.

Harvardโ€™s freeze will give a ton of other schools the cover they want. Where the Ivies go, the others follow. Sigh.

Harvard University announces hiring freeze amid Trump funding cuts. Here's what it means Harvard University cited "rapidly shifting federal policies" in the announcement Monday.

Here we go. Not remotely surprised.
Harvard, MIT, U of Vermont, Notre Dame, and Emory too. More will follow.
Terrible news for those of us finishing our PhDs and looking for academic jobs. #AcademicSky #EduSky

Every single Dem should skip the SOTU. Hold a competing town hall online. Use it as a jumping off point for creating a Democratic Project 2029.

Target ending DEI initiatives amid Trump's order on diversity programs Target said on Friday it was ending its diversity, equity and inclusion program along with other equity initiatives, becoming the latest U.S. firm to pull back on these policies, meant to boost racial and ethnic representation at workplaces.

Just directly emailed the CEO of Target ๐ŸŽฏ to let him know Iโ€™ll no longer be shopping there. Cancelling my RedCard too.
It took me about five minutes and three clicks to find his email address.
I encourage you to do the same.

1. Actually watch the video I linked.
2. Keep voting no on his cabinet choices. Encourage your fellow Dems to do the same.
3. Call out Trumpโ€™s actions as authoritarian and fascist in explicit terms.
4. The norms are gone. Start planning accordingly and stop worrying about โ€œbipartisanship.โ€ FIGHT!

Higher-ed faculty, we should ask how far our institutions will go to protect us when we refuse to comply with ICE.

We need to be asking chairs, deans, union presidents what they're going to do to protect us should we refuse ICE entry to our classrooms or should we refuse to identify a student.
