The current huge story about the gang rape at Cornell University, a crime originally brushed off and covered up by the administration, is SOLELY the product of the student paper, the Cornell Daily Sun, which doggedly pursued the story. Not the NYT or CNN. An independent student paper. #Cornell

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR | Cornell Won’t Listen, We Will

The Sun's Editor-in-Chief Sophia Dasser '28 calls on the Cornell community to share its reactions to the Chi Phi lawsuit and the University's response, on the record, for a permanent public archive.

Trump's effort to rebrand AI as SI doesn't go far enough. It should be called Super Human Intelligence Technology. We'd get more accurate news headlines, like: "Under Trump, Government Turns to SHIT" or "SHIT Heads Visit White House"

You really need to break these stats down into "disapprove because they mostly support Trump" and "disapprove because they sometimes block Trump"

In May of 1940 there was a mass panic in Britain - stirred up by the tabloid press - about 'fighting aged men' who had come to Britain as 'refugees' posing a threat to the women and children of this country - and essentially forming a 'fifth column' that could, at any moment rise up against everyone

Just a reminder as the new academic year kicks off - the UK government has deliberately, ruthlessly, throttled the recruitment of international students, solely to pander to racists, and the resultant 25%+ fall in numbers can and will only accelerate some universities into bankruptcy.

I do not really know what to do about the reactionary core, their values are so alien to mine that I fear we can only have conflict with one another. But I will say that all the people who get psy-oped into adopting their positions or aesthetics are betraying their best selves and sending us to ruin

In social psychology the opposite norm has become oppressive and rote. Every paper can add X more studies showing generality, boundaries, process, replication ... but such requests become a way to enforce a poorly defined vision of "how much" in a paper, and yes, running them is then a moral hazard.

British universities are both thinner and greedier now. They’re thinner in that they’re doing less and offering less (fewer courses, fewer modules, fewer assessments, fewer staff, far less student and staff support). They’re greedier in that they demand more of both students and staff: more money…

And by extension, we need to stand up for our values. Defend the public from groups who use the threat of violence to intimidate us. Identify political actors who are compromised by shady funding or relationships with foreign actors. Fund institutions that defend democratic values like media.
