I have always liked any movie based on real life events with positive and uplifting outcomes. At this time, I find myself preferring those more and more.

I am in Northern Michigan visiting family near where I grew up. I have confirmation that after 16 years in North Carolina that all my Yankee blood is officially been replaced.

I just read a study noting it is easier to read an emotion correctly from a human face as compared to emojis. With partial face blindness, that explains a lot and why some emojis stress me out. Nuances are particularly tough. 😞😔😟😕🙁☹️??? Now, a well structured Likert scale, that makes sense. 😎

I decided that today I would see what it was like to have just 1 full day with little/no external cog stimulation, to get a glimpse of a life without constantly learning new things supported by evidence. At 9:45 I opened BlueSky by habit and quickly realized my quest must wait for another day. 😊

Great group for my session at the Lilly Conference in Ohio. This one is titled: The Ones Too Often Left Behind. I am so grateful for the provost at Southern Oregon University for suggesting I attend a Lilly Conference in 1996.

So excited to be headed today to the 43rd Annual Lilly Conference at Miami University. This conference started when interdisciplinary conferences were not yet a “thing” and well before the internet. Over the next 3 days I will learn from many disciplines and bump colleagues toward bluer skies 😁

A Lilly Conference in San Diego in January. It is worth thinking about 😁. The program is looking solid. There is still an opportunity to present but going to conference and learning from colleagues without any concerns about giving a presentation is a great feeling.

Looking forward to chatting with @bonni208.bsky.social today about The Ones Too Often Left Behind in Higher Ed and a few things faculty can do to give some of these individuals a fair chance at just getting through (inspired by watching how hard my daughter worked to graduate with a 2.0001 GPA...).
