🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Yet another illustration of university administrators behaving as if faculty are an inconvenient expense on the budget line and the marginal value the time they spend doing what they think is important is zero.
Switching from internet to zoom phone so campus can save money. With new training, websites etc. How often do campuses think through: "we save $100,000, but use 1.5hrs of prof time with 5,000 profs getting paid $75/hr and.. oh shit we just spent $550K on salary to save $100K" .. I'm guessing never

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.
They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.
The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

Project 2025 posits school choice as a solution to declining math & reading scores, praising states already offering school choice as examples of success in education. Those same states have the lowest national average math & reading scores-a detail the report conveniently omits. #EduSky

When I was 5, I loved science, which I took to be planets and magnets and chemicals and shit.
Soon I realized science was a collective human activity, and these were just the objects of its attention.
Anyway, whenever I read an OpEd on how science isn't political, I think "Are you 5 years old?"

4/When Project 2025 began to attract a lot of media attention, the reaction was overwhelmingly negative. Trump distanced himself. The public bought it. Now is a good time to reeducate yourself about what's coming. It's not pretty. joycevance.substack.com/p/project-20...

Lots of stories about how mass deportations will spike food prices and cause inflation. But as Tom Bonier noted, only one published before Election Day...
