People probably wish I would not post political views, but here’s the thing. We are running out of time to mitigate the worst effects of

. If Trump is re-elected he will dismantle all the progress Biden/Harris made. It’s now or never.

It's academic job search season. I can't understand some of these salaries I'm seeing posted. Assistant Professor roles for considerably less than what a classroom teacher makes. Not sure how these universities think they can recruit professors at these salaries.

I’m a social scientist and if I submitted a paper to a academic journal with this sample size and claimed it was a nationally representative sample, it would be rejected.

Yes, voting against paid family leave, medical leave, child tax credit extensions, all of which her husband has done, does make it harder on families.

A, he's not a witness to anything relevant, B he's not a democrat, and C, dems are willing to call out a conspiracy theorist when they see one.
@mattmajendie
I’m a big fan of climate change advocacy, but this type of protest just pisses people off. The kind that informs is much more likely to be effective. We are beyond the point where just calling attention to the issue is enough. We need to be informative.
I had my doubts about

before today, but now I not only want her to try the case, I want to have a Grey Goose martini with her on vacation in Belize.
So this just happened! I am so honored and I want to thank my collaborators, especially my current and former students, who have contributed so much to my career. 🙏
We are thrilled to celebrate Professor

Interesting how it always seems plenty of arguments that it is “the right thing to do” to let the rich and powerful off while convicting the poor and unconnected.
@RyanShead
“I missed my flight out of O’Hare so now I’m joining your movement,” said no one ever. I’m in favor of protests. They are an important means to bring about change. Protests that inform and persuade are more effective than those that infuriate.

“If you don’t support my wife, I’m not supporting you” might be ok for George who can just go live at Lake Como. What about the rest of us?

Peter, this is complete nonsense. Those were very different situations than this. I’m really struggling to continue following you.
Completing my annual review and realized in 2022 I received a teaching award, a service award, and was elected to the National Academy of Ed. A pretty cool trifecta!

Which of the following is correct:
A) There isn't a "CRT curriculum"
B) Fed money doesn't go to "CRT curriculum"
C) CRT isn't racist
D) CRT is not used to teach white children that they are inferior
E) Rep MTG needs to do a little bit of homework
F ) All of the above
To all those who say, nothing can be done to stop mass shootings, I remember when people said there is nothing you can do about airplane high jacking, and there is no way to make cars safer, and no way to encourage less drinking and driving, etc. We can reduce

Speech, free or otherwise, has consequences. Those who are “free” to engage in hate speech, are subject to experience consequences of their speech.
@davidmweissman
Once you convince yourself that you can be forgiven no matter what you do, it provides a permission structure for some pretty horrific behavior.

Her husband and children literally above her. His hand on her shoulder keeping her down in her place, in the kitchen. I mean the imagery without the smiles looks like a hostage video. 😳

My nephew’s an infectious disease doctor. He says, of course you can do your own medical research. Just takes 8 years of med school and grad school.
@jeffjarvis
Stop interviewing Trump supporters to get their views on Harris. Why do we care what they think? They are not relevant. We need to hear from independents and conservative dems.

I didn’t attempt to rob that bank. I just attempted to transfer unearned money into my personal bank account from other people’s bank accounts.
Since she's not on this crazy platform, I'm pleased to share the good news that my colleague, Erika Patall, is now a Professor at Rossier School of Education. Congratulations on your well deserved promotion Erika!

Exactly. You aren’t picking a spouse. You are picking the person who will do the most good and the least damage to our country.
Hello! Anyone still out there? I'm losing a lot of followers since you know who took over. If you are still out there and care about

Could it be because the media remind everyone multiples times a day how old Biden is while failing to note that Trump is just 3 years younger?
It’s indescribable how proud I am of my current and former students who are not only doing amazing research, they are contributing to policy and practice. They are also leaders and emerging leaders in the field. Feeling all the feels leaving

RFK Jr’s VP Nicole Shanahan says they cannot endorse Trump until he admits Operation Warp Speed was a failure:
"The hesitation we have right now in joining forces with Trump is that he has not apologized or publicly come out and said Operation Warp Speed was his fault.

@KenCaldeira
I hate these, “sure the climate crisis is really bad but fixing it has it’s downsides” articles. There is no easy perfect solution without downsides. We passed that point a long time ago. All solutions will have some upsides and some downsides but we have to make the effort.

I teach at a university and while I do think young people have concerns about the destructive form of capitalism USA practices, I do not see a ground swell of support for communism. Where do they get these ideas? Any data to support this?
