I'm just going to assign a lot of reading this term. I know everyone is despairing about students' ability and willingness to read, but I worry about requiring less and less until it's not even clear why we're needed anymore.

If universities should have ideological diversity that reflects the country more broadly, why stop there? Why shouldn’t we have diversity in educational level or literacy that reflects the country too?

Threatening to “round up tenants” or call ICE because of someone’s national origin is blatant discrimination.
And in New York, it’s illegal. Any company engaging in it will be fined.
Report discrimination to @NYSHumanRights.
NYS Division of Human Rights@NYSHumanRights
Today, we announced a $55,000 fine against an apartment complex in NYC for displaying a poster encouraging tenants to report immigrants to ICE based on national origin. We're here to protect your rights as a New Yorker, no matter where you come from. dhr.ny.gov/parsons-nation…

Most people assume that data centers pay for the electricity they use, instead of the utility companies passing the extra costs to their customers.
Every state can, and should do this too.
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS
In New Jersey a bill has been introduced to make sure data centers pay for electricity they use. This power surcharge would go toward modernizing the state’s electric grid.

Two weeks ago, a federal judge opined whether noncitizens in the U.S. have the same First Amendment rights as citizens.
“The court answers this question unequivocally, ‘yes, they do.’”

i’m against ICE and immigration enforcement
Karly Kingsley@karlykingsley
No one’s against ICE or immigration enforcement. They’re against ICE being comprised of fascist high school bullies who couldn’t cut it in the military and think that shooting pastors in the head with plastic bullets, for no reason, is acceptable.

Vanderbilt is among 9 universities
Trump is trying to bring to heel. Our university administration MUST refuse this unconstitutional compact. We call on graduate workers, undergraduates, faculty, and other affiliates of Vanderbilt to sign our petition.

ICE agents just snatched a Journalist & were Speeding away when they hit a woman’s vehicle that was going to work & doing nothing wrong! They almost left the scene after slamming into her,but then snatched her out of her car at gunpoint and took her with them! 🤬

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/20…

Tron: Aries is just conservative propaganda about how Asian (and Latino) model minority techies can save the world by allying with white men against black women. Really good example of why afropessimism is a theory that comes out of cinema studies

A lot of political education happening at the Nashville airport right now. Not enough. But a lot.

Crazy to let conservatives be the face of “tuition should be lower” and “we should stop grade inflation”
