I have also never received the connection information for his virtual town halls despite signing up 😂

Was the ghost of George Wallace booked?

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK #MSU So, we don't provide equal opportunities anymore? >Per the guidance from MSU Human Resources, please remove the following language from all letterhead immediately: “MSU is an affirmative-action, equal-opportunity employer”.

Bro is trying to speed run a recession to force interests rates lower to make more money for himself and his cronies.

The University of Michigan's Faculty Senate has passed a resolution in support of a Big Ten mutual-defense compact, joining Rutgers, Nebraska, Indiana, and Michigan State. #HigherEd #AcademicSky

I'm disappointed to share that my NSF career grant on anti-Asian dehumanization was terminated. This affects ongoing project activities, which have shown great progress so far, and support for my research team and more. I'm sad to share that the hiring of the postdoc role is currently on pause.

NSF grant collaborating with amazing colleagues to train postdocs in participatory and community engaged STEM education is terminated

😮 3 child sized Melanias standing on each other’s shoulders

"why do you text in all lowercase" god forbid a bitch is anti capitalism

In town for every @lansingcommonfc.bsky.social home game this summer, the fam and I got season tickets.

Proud to have stood with @utsfmsu.bsky.social, @untf-msu.bsky.social, and @geuatmsu.org on Thursday. #AcademicSky #highered #iteachphysics #unionproud #msu

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

BREAKING: There was a second Hegseth group chat?!?

Breaking: a judge in GA ordered that the fed'l gov't CANNOT pull the visas of foreign students. The order applies ONLY to students who are part of the lawsuit. If you want to join the lawsuit, reach out to: [email protected] and [email protected] youtu.be/FS6B8CM8uf4

Happy Easter or Sunday (your choice) from Mt. #Frandor. As a lapsed Catholic, I’m reminded of Mark 10:21-22. #LoveLansing #PureMichigan

Sir, Capitalism would like a word.

Yes. Focusing on policies that should be developed and changed to better support students is fine. Rejecting the fight because DEI is in the news is aligning with the resegregation of education. They want to control an uneducated, afraid, and divided people - we must fight this at every turn.

I got an email yesterday afternoon that my NSF SPRF Postdoctoral Fellowship was terminated. My grant focused on testing interventions to address online misinformation and I was 8 months into a two year appointment.

Must be nice 😭

Laws? lol

UMich Faculty Senate is discussing a mutual defense pact and impacts to DEI. I’m not familiar with their DEI work, but I’m unsurprised that older physicists are the only people who were speaking against them. www.michigandaily.com/news/academi...

🚨Report your NSF grant terminations! 🚨 We are starting to collect information on NSF grant terminations to create a shared resource as we have for NIH. The more information we collect, the more we can organize, advocate, and fight back! Please share widely! airtable.com/appGKlSVeXni...

Here's a copy of an NSF grant termination notice that went out today. "NSF is issuing this termination to protect the interests of the government pursuant...on the basis that they no longer effectuate the program goals or agency priorities." Not subject to appeal. #HigherEd #AcademicSky

Appears these new regulations apply to currently funded grants.

☠️

“Research projects with more narrow impact limited to subgroups of people based on protected class or characteristics do not effectuate NSF priorities.” Well, fuck.

Nine direct and five flow-through USAID projects at MSU were terminated, amounting to more than $20 million in funding lost, according to a university spokesperson.

MSU labor unions are calling actions by the Trump Administration unreasonable, unscientific, and unethical.

On April 1st, I sent every one of my faculty senators an email about the Rutgers Mutual Defense Compact. Each one replied in support. I’m glad they pushed for it to appear on the agenda. youtu.be/furi2pmDeiA?... #academicsky #michiganstate #msu #puremichigan

Oh shit. I’m quoted here at the end. Great coverage by WZZM! Thanks y’all. www.wzzm13.com/article/news...

I was interview by WZZM in Grand Rapids. They asked me how I was coping and I told them I carry my passport. The reporter seemed shocked and asked how that made me feel. I said something like: I’m not wanted. newrepublic.com/post/194119/...

Not religious. Thank god he’s alive.
