New to the web: WP with @jonattridge & Jill Welch on free community college in Tennessee. We estimate positive effects on AA/AS attainment and job quality in the early 20s, no significant change in BA/BS attainment by the mid-20s. First link here: https://t.co/qmON7FxLUC

We used to be a proper country. This was before they added my Nana’s favorite: Baked Stuffed Shrimp. Champagne for 2? Yes, please! Fruit cup appetizer, let’s get crazy!

[MLB Scoring Changes @ScoringChanges]

IT'S HAPPENING!!!!!

Alex Cora, @RedSox manager, has announced that on Monday, Danny Jansen will substitute in for Reese McGuire at catcher (who is not on the current roster) for the resumption of the 6/26 game with the @BlueJays), meaning he will not only become the first player to play for both teams in the same game in MLB history, but he will catch the at bat that he himself started and must be pinch-hit for.

My wife literally said this to me as we were watching the swimming and I was cheering for all my people.

Clark's Trading Post (now it's called Clark's Bears apparently) is a staple for kids all across New England. Can't wait to bring the younger kids there some day.

Wish I could be in Boston for the @celtics parade.

My memory of ‘08 was stepping outside my office at City Hall to see Kevin McHale going crazy in the duck boat.

Oh, and he was the one who traded KG from Minnesota to Boston 😂☘️☘️

@spcorcor18 @vupeabody Congratulations to all! What a great day!

@WaltEcton I do feel like we need updated evidence of the apprenticeship system. Our best available evidence is starting to look a bit outdated due to changes in scale, technologies, and selection differences: https://t.co/RArfFckg4G

[Jonathon Attridge @jonattridge]

First thing I thought this AM was, what if we are absolutely wrong about this season? We aren’t, but it’s a sad world when we give up before April, but that’s what this ownership group has done to Red Sox fans.

[Thomas Carrieri @Thomas_Carrieri]

Red Sox going 162-0 and Rafael Devers winning MVP until proven otherwise.

@ProfessaJay Doing my first half marathon soon. At the same time, I wish they still did Clydesdale divisions just for reference. I'm gonna guess it's a bit harder to carry 250+ lbs than 150 lbs. No, I'm not gonna run a 6 min mile but I'll finish the race and squat 2.5x your body wt.

[Jonathon Attridge @jonattridge]

Take me back

Incredibly excited about this research. It’s important to continue to build out evidence on the efficacy of merit based scholarships—our students, institutions, and tax payers deserve this research update. Congrats to all those who worked on it. Looking forward to getting started

Congrats to Dr. Brian McCall @CSHPE and @tnhighered who received an #IESfunded #NCER award to assess the effectiveness of the Tennessee HOPE Scholarship in promoting college access, degree completion, and employment outcomes in Tennessee. Learn more: https://t.co/2r3nCkm6dg

@jenniferdoleac Have only had IRL convos with him but Joe Benitez at UTK has done some interesting work in this space.

Interesting new @nberpubs working paper!

@monicajdeza, @JCMecon and coauthors use Tennessee data to show that when the state disenrolled Medicaid recipients, they were more likely to commit crime.

More evidence of the importance of health care coverage.
