Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Bald eagles along the bayou in Houston, 2025

Bald eagles along the bayou in Houston, 2025

When I was young, there were <1,000 bald eagles in the lower 48 due to DDT, hunting, and habitat loss, and we never saw one the whole time roaming the prairies and mountains of SD. Today, there are 70,000+ and I see them daily. Governments can and should effect positive change.

Congratulations! We didn't have drone cameras back in 1980 when Mt. St. Helens erupted in Washington State. Oregon bore the brunt of the ash fallout. There was no way to pinpoint when the massive eruption would happen, so those that got good photos were just plain lucky.
