Diversity. Equity. Inclusion.

That’s what DEI stands for. It’s why you never hear Republicans actually spell it out. Because when you say “I’m opposed to diversity, equity & inclusion,” you sound like a white supremacist, which is what their entire policy agenda is built around.

[Dr Marissa Edwards @DrMarissaKate]

PSA to universities:

When your PhD students can’t afford rent, groceries, healthcare, childcare and other essentials, something is very wrong.

We can’t expect students to succeed when they are struggling to cover basic living costs.

Provide more $ support and raise stipends now.

"If great teaching is as important as universities claim in mission statements, then they should reward it with career advancement. The same holds for faculty activities that are praised by so many, but barely noticed when it’s important (tenure)."

@Kathleen_EBR Well this is the first I'm hearing about this...

[Grad Employees' Org UMich @geo3550]

BREAKING: Grad Workers Vote for Tentative Agreement (TA) with U-M

Winning a living wage for most PhD students and major gains in harassment protections, police abolition, and parent & transgender grad care, the TA is a testament to the power of our strike.

@ak_viticulture Thanks!!

[Dr. Andrew Scheldorf @MalusButNice]

Ok I think everything is turned in, and all the boxes checked, so I can announce, I will be starting as an Active Learning Initiative Postdoc next week at Cornell! I am excited to work with the faculty to develop new courses and continue my work in inclusive teaching 🌈🌼🍎

Providing demographic data for NSF: Actually, I do wish to provide my gender, but your survey does not include nonbinary scientists. You are not accurately assessing diversity when you erase queer and transgender scientists. @ISNBS_ #QueerinSTEM

@Kathleen_EBR See I don't like many either, but I will cheat my brain and open a new window. There are no tabs there! Open another 15!

[Dr. Andrew Scheldorf @MalusButNice]

@Kathleen_EBR See my first thought was "wow vintage tabs, it's too bad they were only limited to that" lol
