They're not just going to stop collecting data; they want researchers to stop accessing the data that already exists. Despicable.

Good news! Especially for those at #AEFP2025 / @aefpweb.bsky.social who might use IPEDS: I came across this new R package that allows you to download literally all of IPEDS before it is gone! nehgov.github.io/ripeds/ I tested it yesterday and it works like a charm. Definitely recommend!

Wrote a message to my representative about Ukraine yesterday, and today I got this response. So I guess now every constituent who voices a concern about this new administration is using “a third party advocacy organization”?

Pleased to share my latest publication, coauthored with Kristin Labs & Dawn Wood! We explore virtual exchange and academic success for limited-income community college students. We found evidence of academic gains, but also concerns for equity in program access. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
