Is your campus preparing for the possibility of increased tensions after #Election2024? AAC&U's new “morning after” guide can help institutional leaders, faculty, and staff prepare for challenges and transform them into learning opportunities. ow.ly/KFnQ50TVlwT

I have been visiting and listening to campuses and anxieties about the “morning after” Election Day. We created a guide to help. It includes everything from managing the neutrality challenge to planning ahead for difficult discussions. Check it out: aacu.org/initiatives/in… @aacu

Check out our new Making Sense Of discussion guide: idhe.tufts.edu/aainhe This edition deals with, affirmative action in higher education. How does the recent Supreme Court decision affect how admissions works in higher ed? Who benefits, and what are the risks we face today?

Wish my friends at CLDE right now would take some pics and send them. Stinks being stuck at home with Covid! (No worries - I am fine. Just didn’t want to spread it)

We know a lot about students and voters, but have a lot more to learn about student voters, so it was amazing to discuss how we get students involved directly in closing this knowledge gap with Connie Jorgensen @PiedmontVaCC and @AdamGismondi @TuftsIDHE

#LightsOut. A slightly amended bill unanimously passed the House in Hartford today. Not perfect but a big help for migrating birds. Thank you for emailing your local rep! ctaudubon.org/2023/05/advoca…

The answer: 100%. Educating for the health and future of a democratic society is what we do. I don't know how institutions can parse out something that's core to the mission. South Carolina Requests Colleges' DEI Spending, Following Florida and Oklahoma chronicle.com/article/south-…

Over a decade ago, I decided to start closing out my military career and embark on a new journey as a writer & scholar on race and democracy. So, I'm thrilled to share this professional news today - it's a dream come true. washingtonpost.com/pr/2023/02/17/…
