Journalists should not be arrested for doing their job. All of us are better informed when they can undertake their constitutionally protected duty without fear for their personal safety or wellbeing. @dartmouth

[Student Press Law Center @SPLC]

We are disturbed to see reports of student journalists assaulted or threatened with arrest, as the country relies on them at this historic moment. All of us are better informed when they can work without fear for their personal safety. Full statement: https://t.co/aDKjnvsmLU

Fun bee fact #1:

Almost 90% of wild plants and 75% of leading global crops depend on animal pollination. One out of every three mouthfuls of our food depends on pollinators such as bees. Crops that depend on pollination are five times more valuable than those that do not.
