I'm still shocked @hhmi.bsky.social cancelling the Inclusive Excellence program, which has done so much good four our university community.

She's awesome! I was lucky to go to college with her! She worked in the writing center and gave me excellent peer feedback.

Sleep is such a messy multi-colinear variable w/r/t depression PHQ9. I'm not surprised they just left it out of the figures.

Our teacher training grant, which funds low income students interested in becoming science and special education teachers, was rescinded. thecrest.news/trump-admini...

It's been devastating to our student teachers, who came to our university for that scholarship. Again, this is money already appropriated and approved with bipartisan support.

We talked Darwin in Neuroscience of Gender. "The chief distinction in the intellectual powers of the two sexes is shewn by man attaining to a higher eminence... than woman can attain-whether requiring deep thought, reason, or imagination, or merely the use of the senses and hands" Descent (1871)"

1) That we talk about these issues w/ our kids. I asked my mom if she in the segregated South in the 50s ever talked civil rights with her fam: Not at all. 2) Dogs in snow. 3) Speculative fiction. 4) Students excited to learn. 5) Neighbors who feed each other.

I got the official notice that they are ending the Inclusive Excellence program. It was a short, terse paragraph. No more grant reports due. Unused funds to be used as we see it in accordance with mission and laws.

This is awful.

I wondered about that. I wore NVGs when I was doing dark-rearing studies on rat pups, and my peripheral vision was definitely impaired.

I took a great extension class and went on a few expert led forages, and now am very comfortable with a few safe & delicious favorites (Puffballs, Chickens & Hens of the Woods, Lobsters, and Morels).

Wow! Do you also mushroom forage? It's puffball season up here now. (I'm adding your '23 dream content meta-analysis paper to the syllabus for next semester's Sleep & Circadian Rhythms capstone class!)
