As a life long commanders fan, I understand your pain. At this rate, I got to send the team my therapy bill.

Adjunct professor by day.
Dissertation writer by night.
This is what academia will do to you in the final stretch — even Santa isn’t safe.

Be mindful of and gentle with the ways you use Newtown and Sandy Hook today and tomorrow. Those moms, dads, brothers, cousins, and loved ones are here, dealing a hurt most of us can never understand, over and over again.

Listen to them. Amplify their voices.

I found this online and once again I feel weirdly seen and attacked at the same time. ( I detect a trend) #ThePowerOfTheTorresName

Wow what a game. I know there are no moral victories in football, but I am proud of my team. They fought. We can build from that. #WashingtonCommanders #Hail

My childhood! I have the collector box with every book written. Literally got my love of reading by reading this strip.❤️

Student sees me walking on campus: “Are you a professor here?”
Me: “Yes”
Student: “Oh what do you teach?”
Me: “I teach all the assistive technology classes for the rehab department and a special education methods class”
Student: “Oh wow, so you are like a teacher- teacher.”
Me: 😂 “Indeed.”

Our season is definitely donee but I wish fully recovery for these young men. It is a brutal sport. #LifeAsACommandersFan
I didn’t even watch last night…honestly glad I didn’t 😐😖

I hope Jayden, Terry, and the rest of our injured players make a full recovery! I’m so sorry Art Monk had to be present at that game 😭

I guess there’s always next year…? (I have no confidence for the rest of this season 💀)

#Commanders
We’ve hit the part of the season where I turn off the television before the game is over 😐🫣 welp #Commanders #NFCeast

They listened and continued to make improvements all
while keeping the learner in mind throughout.
For this company, they recognize that when say they want to reach all, they mean all.

This is incredible news! Book creator has been my to tool ever since I first reviewed them for accessibility several years ago.

At that time, their product had several accessibility flaws. I brought my findings to them and they immediately went to work to address the issues.
We’re proud to share that our product is officially UDL Certified by CAST.
