Also relevant for specific populations: there are lactation rooms at the conference center and on-site childcare (at additional cost, must be reserved ahead of time).

So proud of this incredible person! (And so excited to taste all the homework!) Watch out for Chef Schnieder, PhD!
Where it started and where it's going.
I'm keeping my doctoral robes but adding my chef's coat.

My aunt sent this to me, apparently from an old coloring book she had that I used when I was nine. Look at that last line. I’ve been educationally ungovernable since 1982.

Just a heads up: Was in Tucson Immigration court. My clients had followed the proper procedures to enter the U.S. when they arrived and requested asylum. ICE attorney attempted to get my client's asylum claims terminated, like we saw in multiple immigration courts around the country last week. 1/4

This is eye-opening and absolutely horrifying. We can choose differently, though. We really, really can. This future is not inevitable. www.technologyreview.com/2025/05/20/1...
We did the math on AI’s energy footprint. Here’s the story you haven’t heard.
The emissions from individual AI text, image, and video queries seem small—until you add up what the industry isn’t tracking and consider where it’s heading next.

The best teaching change I’ve made recently is ending the semester with time for gratitude. I share what I am grateful for from our time & they share what they appreciate about each other as colleagues in the course. It’s joy. I will never go back to exams or turning in papers as a last class again.

If I hear one more higher ed “innovator” (who is clearly not from a farming background) use the word “incubator,” I am going to 1) scream and 2) send them hundreds of pictures of what poultry incubators look like during hatching. Trust me, this is not the vibe you want. Thank you for your attention.

The full quote from RFK, Jr. is truly disgusting and this is 100% him calling for institutionalization of autistic people. This is horrifying.

It was Esther day in my virtual Intro to OT class. I love that day, because I wear my tiara and (usually) students make tons of noise. Sadly, I learned this year that Zoom cancels the sound of all but the most robust noisemakers, so one busy student had to blot out the name of Haman for us all :-)

There is no ethical use of GenAI tools. They are extractive—of the environment, of human labor, of the friction that characterizes human learning. AI takes—it does not give. It’s based on a compromised ethical framework. It’s no surprise it’s being used by those who are dismantling our government.

Investing in students isn't buying expensive third party AI add-ons for the LMS. It's hiring more faculty and staff so we can lower class sizes and devote more individual time to our students.

After #POD24, I'm really curious about this: to those who are active users of AI and, particularly, those who are promoting AI in the classroom, how are you accounting for the environmental impact of AI? Shouldn't we address the harms before we widely embrace this in education?

Is there a starter pack of Higher Ed Teaching and Learning Centers out there, by chance? My TLC, @pimatlc.bsky.social , is just getting started over here and looking for accounts to follow. #POD24 #edusky

“Is my hair thinning, or am I ripping it out because a thirty-four-time convicted, sexually abusive steak salesman with a Hannibal Lecter fetish is five points ahead in Arizona?” Wow, sometimes McSweeny’s is a little too on the nose.

My favorite CTL work is the internal mission, vision, & values work. Without it we do not know who we are, we risk becoming irrelevant or over-committed, & we can’t show our value or celebrate our success. Grateful that the TLC team at Pima gets this & are willing to put in the work to realize it. ❤️
