I just have no words. This is from a former classmate who was doing a Fulbright in Ukraine before he was pulled out in January for his safety. Please pray for these people and contribute to aid as you can (message me if you need help finding legit orgs).

From my landlord in Ukraine: “Still alive…you can hear explosions in the distance…we are at home praying.” Keep these people in your thoughts as we enter another night.

AMAZING night at Red Rocks with Switchfoot & Needtobreathe! How grateful I am for nature & art, medicine for the soul.

If a tree falls with no-one around to hear it, did it actually make a sound?

If a job is posted without a salary, is it actually a job?

I like that this project not only informs about the carbon footprint of cultural tourism & historic preservation, but also unpacks how these sites have historically interacted with their environment. Informative, challenging, and visually stunning - a terrific site!

Heritage sites like the Great Barrier Reef, Taj Mahal, and Statue of Liberty are threatened by climate change-and heritage tourism can compound the effects. Climate Footprints of Heritage Tourism, from @umdanth, asks what can we do? https://t.co/NA0ZVUKqKo #ClimateChange #DH

I listened to their episode on "Did Lincoln ever feel unqualified to be president?" and it was FANTASTIC! It was both informative and practical, and I felt empowered after listening.

How do you respond to questions you just don't have time to answer on a tour? @lincolnscottage made a podcast! Each episode of Q&Abe answers a real question from visitors on topics from slavery to grief to leadership. https://t.co/CdNsn4lpr6 #Lincoln #podcast #museums

@mohistorymuseum @reddit Why not? If NYC can have ninja turtles living in their sewers, why can't STL have friendly country turtles living in their basements?

I am 150% in favor of transparent salary info on job postings and have included them on all 50+ jobs I’ve posted in the past nine years. As a nonprofit CEO, let me share a couple things that make this a stressful choice for some orgs:
