We do not support lifting the vaccine mandate. Full stop.

We want #accessibility to be a focus of our safety planning on this campus. People with disabilities matter.

[Union of Non-Tenure Track Faculty @ Michigan State @untf_msu]

There are a lot of rumors flying around, and we want to 1) support our members however we can and 2) nip those rumors in the bud. Our prez has been in constant contact with admin and knows what's going on.

[Union of Non-Tenure Track Faculty @ Michigan State @untf_msu]

We hope you're taking care of your students... we also hope you're taking care of YOU. Spartan faculty, please be in touch if you need anything at all. We're working closely with admin to make good decisions and support our community.

This week’s MSU Libraries activities include multiple therapy dog visits and crafting events—come hang out with us if you’re looking for community, whether it’s in the form of a friendly snout or a quiet coloring session.

[Alyssa Hadley Dunn @AlyssaDunn618]

Dearest @michiganstateu teaching colleagues, please take care of yourselves this week. You are being asked to do the impossible. Your feelings are valid and real and shouldn’t be minimized. Please reach out if you need support. 💚🤍

[ReclaimMSU @ReclaimMSU]

Good morning, friends.

Bring your whole self to class today.

Bring your anger, grief and exhaustion.

Bring your questions – the ones that keep you awake.

Bring your stories. Bring profanities.

Bring rage. Bring hope.

Bring love.

[Glenn R. Stutzky @stutzky]

Let me say again: Students matter more than the content of any class, any syllabus, any rubric, any PowerPoint, any textbook & yes even more than your lectures. Step away from the lectern, sit down with them & listen with your heart. Above all be human. @ReclaimMSU @untf_msu

[Union of Non-Tenure Track Faculty @ Michigan State @untf_msu]

There is no one-size-fits-all way to handle a crisis. Please, let’s show grace and compassion to everyone in our community. Caring for each other is a revolutionary act.

[Union of Non-Tenure Track Faculty @ Michigan State @untf_msu]

@annazjeffries @DrMikeWiser It was, yes. We’re no admin apologists here, but it’s important to remember that we were/are in the midst of a major crisis. The return date changed after admin listened to students and faculty.
