Interesting that Trump’s economic approval has fallen to basically the worst of his career and his overall approval is right around where it always is. Maybe the entire phenomenon isn’t actually about the economy? Or maybe there’s much further to fall if / when things get worse. We’re gonna find out

As official communication has not occurred the University of Michigan could still make a different choice.

Choose to be on the right side of history.

As a faculty member at the medical school, I have not yet received any communication about this and am really hoping it’s not true.

Otherwise it’s beyond disappointing and so very wrong.

I really hoped for (but sadly didn’t expect) better.

New story from me: Imani* was in class when she discovered a scholarship program she relied on had been shut down.

“I don’t come from wealth ... Ending the program puts a burden on individuals who don't have it like most of the wealthy people here at the University of Michigan"
A scholarship program helped boost diversity at U of M. Trump’s DEI crackdown just killed it.
The University of Michigan Alumni Association has ended the LEAD Scholars program, a merit-based scholarship that worked to improve enrollment for minority students.

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

Hi everybody. One of the best ways to help create change is to make sure that your representatives hear directly from you. With that in mind, if you believe TikTok should stay, please consider reaching out to your Senators and Congressperson. I sent the following to my senators and representative.
