The Department of Education was created precisely because states proved both unwilling & unable to educate students of color, disabled students, rural students, and, frankly, any students who didn’t come from the elite families that dominated state legislatures.

This is another oligarchic victory.

I had a wonderful experience at BYU as an undergrad, with great mentors and friends who prepared me to be an academic. I also know there are lots of phenomenal faculty there now attempting to blend professionalism with the faith’s mission.

What Clark Gilbert and other admin are doing is tragic. /1

My apologies to all the political podcasts I usually have because there’s no way I’m listening to them for a few months but congratulations to all the podcasts where guys review old episodes of TJ Hooker or various menu items at the Cheesecake Factory because you’re in the queue

After the election I removed all of my social media apps from my phone. I've had so little desire to wade back to any discourse, that whenever I hop on Blue sky, it feels like I'm a hermit going to town for my monthly grocery trip and I have no idea what's going on.
