If you have research dependent on these data here is my suggestion
1/N
Big picture:
Create a dataset of cell means (cells must be big enough to pass disclosure)
- load these cell means into many, many tables & put through review
-These cell means can then be used in OLS - which runs on means

Research with restricted-use data is more precise, powerful, and relevant. Faculty and staff will be working through the weekend to answer important research questions before we no longer can. This is not normal, necessary, or efficient.
AERA has just learned that all restricted-use NCES data licenses will be cancelled, possibly as early as March 20. We urgently request that all AERA members and others in the research community with restricted-use licenses take these two actions: www.aera.net/Research-Pol...

In this op-ed, we - the presidents of SREE and AEFP - joined forces to argue for the importance of evidence on "what works" and how cutting such funding is not "efficient" - it is wasteful. www.brookings.edu/articles/cut...

Women and men earn degrees in some STEM fields at about the same rate now.
But in physics, engineering, & CS, the representation gap is closing at elite schools and widening elsewhere.

This TICS paper turned out to be unexpectedly timely... We could have called it "Why DEI and Merit Go Hand in Hand" given recent developments... Valuing diversity and excellence/merit aren't opposing forces -- they're complementary.
Why the belief in meritocracy is so pervasive

People worldwide tend to believe that their societies are more meritocratic than they

New research by @joecimpian.bsky.social and IDS affiliate @drmcquillan.bsky.social suggests that stress around sexual identity might contribute to increased risks of suicide among teen girls.

Teen girls are facing an increased risk of suicide − and stress related to sexual identity might be contributing to it
While more young people openly identify as LGBQ, many still face substantial challenges that can contribute to a greater prevalence of mental health concerns.

Dr. Adam Stanaland has a nice piece in @theconversation.com about masculinity in the workplace, discussing a controversial topic with tons of research. It's definitely worth a read--and a share! theconversation.com/mark-zuckerb...
Mark Zuckerberg thinks workplaces need to ‘man up’ − here’s why that’s bad for all employees, no matter their gender
Do companies need to embrace a more diesel-fueled, meat-eating mentality? Many already do – and the results aren’t pretty, according to business research.

- Girls' LGBQ identification rose 15% -> 34%
To address suicidality, reduce stressors on LGBQ youth, now over 1/3 of HS girls
