Love to see this transformative scholarly publishing project that replaced double-masked review with a peer mentorship model and helped first-time and emerging scholars get published, open access, in a prestigious journal. Another amazing feat from @courtniewolfgang.bsky.social and colleagues. 📚

I wanna crochet this on a pillow for every white man in academia who assumes it’s just their *hard work* that has them riding that glass escalator right past every woman/ POC/ queer person they’ve ever worked with.

Imagine the biggest problem in your life being about which bathroom a total stranger uses.
Imagine pretending random people you'll never meet are somehow victimizing you with their existence.
Imagine being that hard up for troubles that you have to invent them just so you can play the victim.

I’ve been thinking so much about this garden of American heroes Trump has proposed. I’m keeping a list of possibilities and I offer them fair use. 1. Proposals submitted without scale reference, then executed at dollhouse ratio 1:12.
And, like, I'm pretty sure I could name 250 famous americans off the top of my head. There was a bit back in 2021 www.axios.com/2021/01/19/t...
Historian Michael Beschloss: Trump has "no business" dictating who is an American hero
"Many of the people on this list of "heroes" would be embarrassed to be singled out by someone like Donald Trump."

Our job is not and cannot be policing students so that they don’t cheat. The average classroom instructor is a near-fatally overworked, underpaid contingent thought worker. Our job is to help students understand why the learning is more valuable than anything the cheating can get them.

Generations of poor kids were sold the idea that taking out a student loan was an investment on their future and one they couldn’t afford to pass. Now after multiple once-in-a-lifetime economic downturns and endless avocado toast pieces those same poor kids are being targeted for immiseration.
BREAKING: Education Department says it will begin collection on student loans for over 5 million borrowers in default.
Student loans in default to be referred to debt collection, Education Department says
The Education Department will begin collection next month on student loans that are in default, including the garnishing of wages for potentially millions of borrowers, officials said Monday.

‘A convenyent foode’?: university republishes 450-year-old book on cheese
The new transcription of pamphlet contains some advice with contemporary resonance
They are 450-year-old words of wisdom but they will ring true with anyone rooting around the fridge for late night comfort: “A surfyte of cheese doth bringe payne.”
