Pleased to share this OpEd that I co-authored with Sean Harrington about the inflection point we are now in for Higher Ed. Coupled with an extraordinary Legal Writing program, students get the best of both worlds with tradition and AI. https://t.co/U0s1NIaD4V

And... I spoke too soon. Now this is a mistake from CDC ACIP. Really, we are not allowing healthcare workers, many of whom got vaccinated in back in December, to get a booster? What about teachers in cramped classrooms where masks aren’t required? @CDCDirector needs to overrule.

Research institutions need more Teaching-only tenure-track faculty. This should be standard at institutions that are research intensive to ensure that there are incentives and ability for faculty to actually care about teaching undergraduates in the classroom.

[Nicole Barbaro @NicoleBarbaro]

The problem of college teaching in America is not that we do not know what is effective or how students learn, but that there are minimum incentives for professors to implement good teaching. R&P is heavily skewed toward research, and teaching positions systematically pay less.

[Dr. Oswald Sobrino @OswaldSobrino22]

I guess we're just supposed to calmly see these rising numbers and expect no major response from UMAnnArbor or the Regents or local media editorial boards or Ann Arbor city officials or the governor.

[Jack Grieve @jackeryg]

▶️ Reported cases for the year more than doubled
▶️ @UMich knew about the additional cases all along
▶️ 13 new cases in dorms yesterday
▶️ Positive rate metric is out the window

@clairehao_ and I explain U-M's COVID-19 Dashboard and its most recent update:https://t.co/aj8EQsRXio

BREAKING: University of Michigan faculty senate chair announces that no confidence vote in president @DrMarkSchlissel should have passed because abstain votes shouldn’t have been counted. Chair declares motion to have passed and faculty to have no confidence in President. @freep

[Holly Hays (she/her) @hollyvhays]

IU is encouraging the closure of all 40 Greek houses on its Bloomington campus, where mitigation testing has revealed "an increasingly alarming" rate of positivity — in some cases well over 50%.

Illinois State University reported 1,023 student cases of COVID as of Tuesday — nearly 5% of the student body

[David Jesse @reporterdavidj]

Update from @UMich: "New cases include reports of 5 students and 7 employees in the last 2 days. Clinical testing on campus continues at a high level; the percentage of tests that are positive during the week beginning August 23 is 1.3%." @freep https://t.co/rAC8Ys7jWo

[Bill Gehring @WilliamGehring]

Happy to sign this petition. Your son and all of our students deserve a campus protected by widespread testing of asymptomatic individuals.

[The Michigan Daily @michigandaily]

The Faculty Senate is considering a vote of no confidence in the administration. A successful vote would mean that the members no longer believe in the University leadership’s ability to execute its role in response to COVID-19.

[The Michigan Daily @michigandaily]

Two cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed in a @UMich residence hall. https://t.co/nxdYDWPPEI

[Corey Stephenson @crjsteph]

Some universities are testing wastewater to proactively look for infections (👍 @uarizona). @Illinois_Alma ran >100,000 tests since July 👏 to try to protect campus and the local community. Michigan’s plan? 👇 Where are the #LeadersAndBest ? No longer in Ann Arbor

[Jack Grieve @jackeryg]

Mask-less parents, unchecked test results, residents allowed to attend off-campus parties and more: @UMich is failing to enforce even the simplest move-in precautions. https://t.co/Upw1Jiwol6

[The Michigan Daily @michigandaily]

“This is a fundamental misunderstanding of the purpose of testing.”

Health experts take issue with @UMich’s comments on testing. https://t.co/YrqwxeVDJC

[Marty Slagter @slagterm]

Students shown partying in photo were following proper guidelines, University of Michigan officials say https://t.co/RzYDs1wdgF

[Jasmin Lee @jasminlee_]

Despite Schlissel saying “I get a little insulted” about students partying, students take the streets looking for house parties.
