I did not grow up in a paper towel family. I do not buy them, but my spouse does. He asked me to pick up some paper towels and WHY ARE THEY SO EXPENSIVE??

Student w/ severe sleep disorder. Cannot be accountable for anything time related. We designed a specific project in my lab that was robust to disruption BUT big picture- how does this work in a team OR w/ regular labs w/o the flexibility

#2: Part of science in most labs is presenting work to others. We have students who cannot do this under any version including prerecording. How do we equitably accommodate while still training in scientific communication?
