Let’s be real: If you want your work to have actual impact (beyond citation count), people beyond the academy need to be able to read it. If you only want academics to access your work, it’s likely just a vanity project.

Time to finish this dissertation!! Please share with your friends & networks! 🙂 The purpose of this study is to explore and understand the lived experiences and well-being of Black queer and trans college students, in addition to the ways they make sense of and manifest joy.

For their own good, the Ivies need to dump legacy admissions The (justified!) political resentment generated by elite preferences is going to produce FAR larger losses (tax advantages, government grants, autonomy) than any donations withheld by peeved alums

New research shows that many campuses don’t have religious accommodation policies. The policies that do exist are often too narrow. #HigherEd bit.ly/3OhLsLu

Texas Republicans have passed a new bill to allow uncertified religious chaplains to replace trained counselors in all K-12 public schools. They also blocked a Democratic amendment that would prevent chaplains from proselytizing students. washingtonpost.com/religion/…

Fun fact: public universities have total carte blanche to buy for-profit corporations, stick them inside wholly-owned non-profit shell companies, and take all the profits without paying taxes OR being subject to federal for-profit college regulations. insidehighered.com/news/inst…

The latest target of the conservative attack on DEI is identity-based graduation ceremonies. Universities argue they give students an opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments with their communities. #HigherEd bit.ly/42hDyG2

This is Nashville. Where we turn off the heat to people's homes once an hour, but downtown tourists can still enjoy the lights of lower Broadway. Maybe our unhoused neighbors can warm themselves by the glow of the lights on at any of our empty stadiums. Thanks, @JohnCooper4Nash
