Yesterday was kind of a big deal in Massachusetts! Finally, undocumented students have access to in-state tuition 🥳 Grateful for the advocates and the policymakers who met the moment. Talk about multiple streams and advocacy coalition.
MA Dept of Higher Ed@MassDHE

As of today, undocumented students can qualify for in-state tuition and fees! Important to recognize this policy milestone for our learners, our communities, and our Commonwealth. Our system of public higher education has never been more inclusive.

The Beatles' Hello, Goodbye has been in my head all morning long. Thank you SNHU for an incredible run over the last two years. Thanks to the UCB Board for choosing me as the College's next President. Let's keep college accessible for deserving students!

"The fight continues, but it must be waged differently—with more courage to confront our legacies head on... and to understand that colorblind rhetoric will do nothing to solve color-bound problems." politico.com/news/magazine/…

@BryanBanksPhD When I first accepted the role of dept chair, one of my colleagues/mentors told me to focus on 3 things: create; communicate; and care; and not in that order. I served for 7 years and i believe the advice served the dept and me well.

Well, it’s official. I’m going to be our department chair next year. It’s a responsibility I’m not taking lightly. What can a dept chair do best, in your mind?

“I think sometimes the way that structural racism works, it pits leaders & families against each other w/partial information to sensationalize something, versus bringing together people who probably have a lot of common ground.” @EmbraceBOS @bostonfdn theguardian.com/us-news/2023/j…

@nmclaren @AlliPatter Yes! Starting teaching CRT in 2015 and had a hip-hop soundtrack that accompanied the course each semester. Music was a real part of the curriculum.
