I extend my deepest condolences to the students whose lives were lost and those injured at Brown University. Nobody should have to risk their life for an education. Inaction is not an option. We must act now to end gun violence. #BrownUniversity #EndGunViolence

On the first day of Hanukkah, we’ve witnessed antisemitic violence against the Jewish community in Bondi Beach Australia. We must stand united against antisemitism, racism, Islamophobia, homophobia, nativism, and all other forms of hate. I mourn the lives loss. #PrayForPeace

After ChatGPT, increase in productivity of male researchers was higher than for female researchers, widening the productivity gap. male researchers use generative AI more & see higher efficiency improvement from its use than female researchers

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.
I glanced down at the message.
“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.
So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

It’s actually really heartening to see the current cohort of “senior” scholars opening talking about unionizing.
When I was in grad school so many people I looked up to were hostile to faculty unionizing, grad student unionizing, even discussing striking.
Hyper individualism will not protect you.

This makes sense and is one reason I don’t do bumper stickers (the main one is that I think police might discriminate against my politics). But I do wonder if this creates partisan asymmetry, and also whether stickers do some good in normalizing minority political options in places.
