Received an email today that the pause on PhD admissions DOES NOT include the School of Medicine.
Sorry to my colleagues in other Pitt schools that are affected.

I signed a bunch of offer letters the other day. I’m assuming the Dean’s office is holding them. I know another graduate program had their recruiting dinner tonight.

I’m grateful to colleagues who are currently researching new polio-like diseases that affect young children, using U.S. government funding.
Hoping Sen. McConnell and other senators reject an unqualified nominee to head DHHS who doesn’t believe in vaccines or that many pathogens cause diseases.

The range was $8-13/dozen. Strangers were standing in front of them, discussing how outrageous it is.
