Thank goodness for the American Medical Association. Here is their YouTube page. Please share far and wide. Right now bird flu is spreading throughout our country and most people have no clue.

Maybe it’s time I took an administrative law class. Seems more relevant than ever these days.

@educationlaw.bsky.social Any comment on the recent EO relating to the PSLF program as to whether changing the eligibility criteria may put those who recently received forgiveness in jeopardy of losing it? Can there be any retroactive action by the “current” DOE to rescind a grant of forgiveness?
