Im begging the NYT to spend time talking to people who actually teach and work at universities. Especially ones that don't have billion dollar endowments.

All academic institutions will soon realize we are in this together, facing an autocratic ruler who wants to destroy academia, science, and public health (together with media and courts - pick up a history book).

There is only one solution - stand up, speak up, and, critically, collective action.

Something I've been thinking a lot about recently is how powerful abusers don't really need to convince you of any one lie but rather just flood the zone with bullshit to render it "complex" enough that nobody feels confident enough to intervene on behalf of the victim

Keep the pressure on.

Never obey in advance.

The Trump administration has restored the student visa registrations of thousands of foreign students studying in the United States who had minor — and often dismissed — legal infractions.

Hard writing makes for easy reading

“Josh, your future readers are very smart and can understand your complicated sentences, but they will also be very tired, because we are all tired, and will appreciate simple sentences.”
I am teaching my phd writing workshop course this quarter, question: are there any words/phrases said to you by an advisor/mentor that stuck with you, were memorable, or particularly helpful? If so please reply below!

actual concrete action item! #AcademicSky. Help support the integrity of scientific inquiry at NIH.
ACTION ITEM-----ACTION ITEM

Implementation of Schedule F

This is what a lot of us have been worried about.

This allows for many civil service positions to replaced with political appointees. This could include NIH institute directors and even POs.

BUT THERE IS A COMMENT PERIOD...

Now more than ever, we must go beyond merely defending universities. We must rebuild them so that they diminish rather than exacerbate inequalities & further the public good at a time when our collective survival is more imperiled than ever before.

Does anyone have a suggestion for where an undergrad could publish a fairly direct replication of a previous psycholinguistics study? I'd love to see it published because it's an effect that I'm glad to know replicates, but it's not going to get published anywhere that prioritizes "originality".
