Alrighty!! It’s #iRestore month. Join me in introducing yourselves all you restoration folk. My Evidence-based Restoration Lab seeks to understand how we can best restore ecosystems and conserve species. We do this in prairies and on oceanic islands.

Wow @FlyAirNZ with some abysmal customer service. A leg of a flight I paid over $1k extra to fly premium economy had a change of aircraft so they put me in economy.

They offered to either refund my ticket if I no longer wanted to fly or nothing, incl not offering premium for the other leg of my flight. And now they're telling me if I fill out paperwork when I get back I *might* be refunded what I already paid them for and didn't receive.

This is the first week I compromised my principles on posting true weekly facts on the whiteboard on my office door. As a proud @NIUlive faculty member, I felt it was my duty. @NIU_Football #upset #NIUFootball
My "did you know" sign on my door reads "Huskies require a high protein diet to support their high energy lifestyles. They're the only dog species documented as occasionally snacking on leprechauns.

I thought I was going to spend Monday writing a Gordon Conference proposal for a fun Restoration project I'm working on with @mlungele, @prof_smurph, and @JMBecologist. But after reading the experience below, we've decided not to support or attend GRCs anymore.

Yes...if anyone has any recommendations or proposals to share let us know!

Do any #DBER or #SABER folks have a successful NSF Innovations in Graduate Education proposal you might be willing to share? A group of us in my department are writing one trying to reduce sexual harassment in STEM and would love to see what a successful one looks like. TIA!

I am really honored to have received two of our highest honors at NIU this spring. It has been a pleasure mentoring younger faculty like @jenniferahkoop and @PallaviSingh11! And the many graduate students who were the engines of the research program for which I was awarded.

❌ Learning from failure: an EU-funded project tried to eradicate #invasive red swamp #crayfish by mechanically excavating stream beds. Unfortunately, it failed but lessons can be learnt from this failure – find out more: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wi… @juliapgjones @BangorSNS

The collective centers BIPOC perspectives, and is a place for members to discuss, support, and collaborate on topics in plant restoration, such as agriculture and sustainability. Dr. Foxx serves as a board member of BERC along with a diverse team of plant scholars.

BERC recognizes that the lack of collaboration and diversity in plant restoration practice, agricultural practice, and academics means valuable knowledge and skills are excluded and the needs of BIPOC community members are often overlooked and unmet.

The goal of BERC is to uplift BIPOC scholars & diverse forms of plant knowledge, including from cultural & lived experience. BERC was inspired to do this work because diverse voices are often ignored in plant restoration spaces because of their proximity to labor.
