@eerasu Hello and yes! I know a perfect candidate for Posse, who is currently a junior at University High in LA. He's been trying to contact his college advisor to ask for a nomination but they never reply. Do you have a suggestion? Can a friend nominate him? Thank you!

I am proud to work in the Harriet Tubman Department of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. This has been years in the making: the decision and commitment, then the process of getting university policies changed to allow for honorific naming that is not for a donor.

@RebeccaSpang @trekonomics Highly recommend @audacity. It's free, open source and makes it easy to edit out breaths, ums, etc. I even added a creative commons music intro and outro.

@hypervisible @histoftech Funny, because their platform sure looks like a wrap-around course including content delivery, 'Practice', 'Quiz', 'Test' - and that's how my kid's teachers are using it. I don't think @edgenuity told our district that they were selling a bunch of supplementary worksheets.

ACADEMIC MUTUAL AID: i started this community resource as an alternative to Zoom guest lecturing. between shelter-in-place, kids running wild in the house, & everyone being stretched to the limit, it can get unsustainable.

Me: how was your Spanish test?
Son: (confident) I think I did pretty well.
Me: oh?
Son: yup, it was multiple choice in Google Forms and Google offered to translate the page for me.

Between 2007-2016 only 22% of all @ERC_Research grantees were women. Appaling. Yet in his 2019 report the ERC President said the council had finally become "gender neutral". Is that so? /1

@trekonomics Don't worry, I'll leave first
