Using my Pugh Professorship endowment to start an annual mentoring institute for novice and minoritized scholars. Hopefully, this will help represent more diverse voices in academic publishing and lead to democratizing scholarly conversations. Please circulate widely.

Why is it so tricky to design inclusive assessment that considers the diversity of students? Perhaps assessment and inclusion are simply incompatible. My @AheConference keynote exploring the paradox of inclusive assessment has been published! https://t.co/e56hFWLQkf

International students from the Global South do not need to do IELTS or TOEFL to prove that their English is good enough for academic study in the Global North.

IELTS and TOEFL actually need these students to make a profit.
