@dr_owenanderson The ad hominem attack, esp. against someone you do not know at all, is surely the sign of a strong argument.

@dr_owenanderson For if you truly amend your If you do not oppress the alien, the orphan, and the widow, or shed innocent blood in this place...then I will dwell with you in this place, in the land that I gave of old to your ancestors forever and ever.

@dr_owenanderson Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it. Remember those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tortured.
Hebrews 13:1-3

[Dr. ffots🇺🇦 @drffots]

@dr_owenanderson Thus says the Lord of hosts: Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another; do not oppress the widow, the orphan, the alien, or the poor; and do not devise evil in your hearts against one another.
Zechariah 7:9-10

Really rich coming from the guy who attacked his contingent colleagues in the Daily Wire. I look forward to Professor Barth joining @UCWArizona to help us advocate for extending tenure protections for his NTE colleagues.

When universities are deeply indebted to private capital, guess whose priorities come first? 🤑 (Hint: it’s not students, workers, or communities)

[United Campus Workers Arizona @UCWArizona]

Our union represents students, too! And they don't have to have campus jobs to join! Often the issues we face affect us all. Funding cuts can mean heavier workloads for faculty and staff — and leave students in bigger classes and longer queues for services. (1/2)

Tucson agenda digging into the salary data at @uarizona. 26 VPs making a combined $7.6 million dollars, while 4,700 workers make $50k or less.

.@PragerU does not belong in Arizona schools. It’s masquerading as a serious educational resource when in reality it’s unaccredited right-wing propaganda.

@uarizona time for admin to take responsibility for this mess rather than sacrificing dedicated workers and the students they serve #ChopFromTheTop #NoLayoffs

[United Campus Workers Arizona @UCWArizona]

@uarizona admin needs to be held accountable for it's errors rather than sacrificing the workers that keep it running and the students it serves #chopfromthetop

ICYMI, former CFO Lisa Rulney is still making $506K a year—now under a new title! Instead of accountability, we got a fake resignation and a boomerang executive.
Now we wonder: Will @uarizonapres still get his $300K in bonuses this year? #FuelWonder

“How many unprotected staffers will be sacrificed on the pyre of this financial mess? How much more will students have to pay? And how will the quality of the education and university experience they are paying for be compromised?” @AZRegents @TucsonStar @HigherEdLabor

When workers need solidarity, they join unions. When presidents need solidarity, they surround themselves with golf buddies and other rich friends who are equally out of touch with the people they take for granted. Read Ellie Wolfe's piece for the @TucsonStar. ⬇️

“Which of the missions are going to go? The fact that we're a Hispanic serving institution, the fact that we're land grant, the fact that we're Native serving? Those are really important pieces of the identity of this institution." @UArizonaPres @AZRegents @GovernorHobbs
