I can only imagine the untapped power in that seething room.

Amazing! I welcome the return of well funded and respected American medical doctors and scientists.

I am so interested in this group. Can someone from Philadelphia (me) get involved?

What about my attention to this matter?

Yes, thinking along these lines.

Breaking News: Read three top CDC officials' resignation emails. The end of an era.

Enough is enough. The health of the country is in danger. Read our resignation letters: insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-n...

Well thatโ€™s funny. We have a similar situation in our house. 3 weeks in and someone is down somewhere between .5 and 1 pound. Lots of plaintive criesโ€ฆ

"I've now been allowed and asked to share more details about what's going down at the University of Oregon, which involves imminent announcement of firings, among others, of tenure-track and tenured faculty. Given the units impacted (see below), please share this with your professional networks in related disciplines and start getting ready to put pressure (or begin putting pressure already) on the University of Oregon upper admin to abandon this alleged plan before they finalize it. 

It appears that, with no prior consultations, the departments of Religion and Classics (two separate units), and the programs in Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies, German & Scandinavian, Judaic Studies, Arabic Studies, and Holocaust Studies (the latter five all parts of a previously- consolidated mega unit called the Schnitzer School of Global Studies and Languages) are facing imminent announcement of elimination (expected the week of Sept 7), with layoffs of pre-tenure, tenured, and career faculty in these units. The reason given is "financial exigency" -- upper administrations of several universities across the country (and in blue states like Oregon also) appear to be giddy to use the context of Trump attacks on higher ed to dismantle the humanities. 

Faculty at OU won a faculty union not long ago; this may be, in part, a retaliation for that, l've been told. The union is working with AAUP, etc.; my understanding is that the maximum spotlight is needed at this point."

Arabic Studies, Holocaust Studies, Russian, Eastern European & Eurasian Studies, Religion, & moreโ€”decimating the humanities destroys our ability to understand the world, act in it, and envision a future. Blue states are complicit in this destruction of scholarship and teaching

Thinking of you all in solidarity. In my experience in higher ed universities often have the budget to pay workers more but choose to allocate it to other priorities.

Me neither. So stressful for everyone.

YES! I was at the Maeght Fondation outside of Nice and my friend and I were in absolute hysterics at the translation. While the effects can be hilarious it is of course terrible for the artist.

These look really interesting- I like the dyed fabric with paintโ€ฆ also Iโ€™m partial to flashy and poly color - like the flatness of those vinyl paints
