Occupy, school shootings / gun violence protests, police violence protests, water protectors, BLM, anti-genocide, Cop City…doesn’t matter what young people are assembling against, the goal of people in power across the political spectrum has been to crush them. Unless they’re alt-right / Proud Boys!

among the things we apparently need to do a better job of going forward - as a society, it seems - is communicating the basic conceit of what learning is and why we value it. a problem that we in higher ed share with our K-12 colleagues

I gotta say I find a lot of AI discourse around higher ed very confusing. "if ChatGPT can write your essays is college even worth it?" did people think math teachers were assigning problem sets because *they* couldn't figure out the answers?

My latest scoop: ICE has rescinded its accountability policy for warrantless arrests, giving agents “free license to make any arrest,” per one lawyer representing victims.

It follows @theguardian.com exclusive that the agency was told to “push the envelope” to meet Trump’s 3k arrest quota.
ICE agents get green light to make unjustified warrantless arrests
The agency announced an accountability policy has been rescinded.

I’ve said it before but it is embarrassing that so many intellectuals spent years in small factional battles over the propriety of calling this fascism.

In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented.

People have actually studied whether international students cross subsidize domestic students. And they do! If 20% of your student body is paying full price, and many of domestic students are not, there is a cross-subsidy, one that allows the university to hire more faculty and open more spots.
Do international students crowd-out or cross-subsidize Americans in higher education?

•
Examines the impact of international students on domestic enrollment in U.S. graduate education
•
On average, exogenous inflows of international students increase domestic enrollment
•
Positive effects are due to cross-subsidization–high net tuition revenue from international students helps offset the costs of enrolling additional domestic students

If you are stopped by Trump's ICE goons, or any other kind of cops:

I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT.

Memorize it.

And don't let ICE in without a JUDICIAL warrant. No, administrative warrants don't count.
