Thanks @BCBSIL for hosting our #RealWorldProject w/ @Chi_Voc freshmen yesterday! Our students had a blast working with volunteers from BCBSIL, @Cognizant , @CapitalOne, @NTTDATAServices, @ClarityPartners, and @KearnsDesign. Real world experiences with awesome mentors! #STEMkids

Thank you, @CecileRichards, for your tireless advocacy on behalf of women and girls, and for your grace under pressure over these last 12 years. And thank you to @PPFA for all you’ve done and continue to do to advance reproductive rights. Onward!

Puerto Rico isn't in the headlines anymore. But the need for recovery funding is no less urgent than it was four months ago. The GOP must move forward now on a bill that provides true disaster relief for PR, TX, FL, and the USVI. #PuertoRicoSeLevanta #PuertoRicoRelief

Knowledge is information.
Understanding is responsibility.
Action is integrity.

...All with a good heart. It doesn't work the other way 'round.

Today-
Who are you teaching to fish?
Who are you spending time with, even though they have radically different views that you?
Who are you helping register to vote?

Amazing the power of fish poop has on #STEM careers! @Chi_Voc @lumitynpo https://t.co/YopcY06fUa

Last month, @Chi_Voc Horticulture students invited us to view their aquaponic project. The students proudly demoed their #STEM skills, combining aquaculture (raising fish) and hydroponics (the soil-less growing of plants) to create an ecosystem that nourishes plants AND fish!

We had a BLAST with @Amundsen_HS students at U.S. Army Corps of Engineers! Lumity students learned a ton during the Q&A with engineers, and our favorite part was learning all about the Chicago Harbor Lock and how it helps reverse the flow of the Chicago River.

We’re disappointed in the decision to gut #NetNeutrality protections that ushered in an unprecedented era of innovation, creativity & civic engagement. This is the beginning of a longer legal battle. Netflix stands w/ innovators, large & small, to oppose this misguided FCC order.

If anyone wonders why #MeToo matters - this is just one leaders journey. We MUST learn to value women's contributions equally! https://t.co/oKahq2kcLH
