Michigan has been doing a version of this for decades in their Residential College. I know because I was an undergraduate in the RC in the late 1990s and still look back fondly at the written evaluations on my transcript that stand in place of letter grades. www.npr.org/2026/08/12/n...

The last day my kids went to school was Jan 22nd...and tomorrow is questionable with a two-hour delay already called. How are you staying sane?

Many have now seen the casual brutality of masked federal agents in Minnesota. But we're also seeing casual intimidation and surveillance [via plate #s] of folks giving rides, food or aid. An unknown agent followed a mom I know into a mall parking lot. “Go home to your children, Samantha,” he said.

As of today, I am a FULL professor. I do not care much for occupational status markers. Still, it is not lost on me that only 2% of full professors are Black women. This goes beyond personal accomplishment. It is a responsibility to do as much as I can for others. That is exactly what I aim to do.

A Toni Morrison quote embedded in a yellow, black, and white graphic design reads: "I tell my students, ‘When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else. This is not just a grab-bag candy game.’”

Alex Pretti took care of veterans as an ICU nurse. “He was a super nice, super helpful guy – looked after his patients," said @dimitridrekonja.bsky.social, who worked with Pretti both at the hospital and on scientific research. "I’m just stunned.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

Post from Amanda Gorman’s Instagram that says

amandascgorman
Minneapolis, Minnesota
For Renee Nicole Good
Killed by ICE. on January 7, 2026
by Amanda Gorman
They say she is no more, That there her absence roars, Blood-blown like a rose.
Iced wheels flinched & froze.
Now, bare riot of candles, Dark fury of flowers, Pure howling of hymns.
If for us she arose,
Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief, Crouches our power,
The howl where we begin,
Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater Of the worst of what we've been.
Change is only possible, & all the greater, When the labour
& bitter anger of our neighbors
Is moved by the love
* better angels of our nature.

"the issue isn’t that we need more 'boy-friendly' reforms. It’s that boys are socialized to compete only with boys and to read girls’ success as illegitimate or emasculating. The result is dissonance, resentment, and disengagement for boys—and hostile climates for girls." time.com/7335723/auto...
