I've been a member of 90.5 FM since 1996. Today I canceled that monthly gift. Last week's personnel and programing announcement made it clear the management no longer cares about the ideals of public radio I worked to uphold alongside my amazing colleagues—especially Kevin Gavin.
A $14.3 million award from the WoodNext Foundation will expand research at the University of Pittsburgh to uncover the causes of two of the most costly and deadly illnesses in the U.S. Learn more about this gift and its impact in Pittwire: https://t.co/by1fusd0xQ @PittDeptofMed

For 30 years, Pitt alum and CNN Hero Jim Withers (MED '84) has provided care to Pittsburgh's homeless community. Now, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Jim is continuing his work and testing for the novel coronavirus.
Thank you, Jim! #PittCOVID19Heroes

Still trying to get used to my new work-from-home coworkers. I just had a nice coffee with one of them. She's rather quiet but seems nice. #HailingFromHome@PittAlumni
For today's #HailingFromHome Challenge: After replenishing my butter supply, I mixed up a batch of peanut butter oatmeal cookies with chocolate icing. @PittAlumni@PittTweet
For today's #HailingFromHome I'm reading something that has been on my shelf for a while. Jules Verne's "lost novel" Paris in the Twentieth Century. Written in the 1860s it depicts life in the 1960s where STEM (no A) is all that matters and the humanities are frowned upon.
@PittAlumni#HailingFromHome Challenge: I picked up a used exercise bike in January. What amazing timing. Rides on rainy evenings and walks/jogs on dry evenings to burn off all those extra work-from-home snacks. @PittTweet
At 10 a.m. EST tomorrow, @UPMC, @PittTweet's partner in the health sciences, will be hosting a live update with doctors and healthcare leaders on the status of COVID-19 in western Pennsylvania and beyond. This update will be streamed online here: https://t.co/Tag5M5IL7g
The best interview of the day! There is still time to be part of #PittDayofGiving Give tonight and help students and researchers. Direct your gift to the school or organization of your choosing. https://t.co/S1vHT0NbW7. Fewer than 1,000 to go by 12:00 to reach our goal.
I just made my #PittDayOfGiving gift online at https://t.co/hK4XyEdCaf. Make a gift today to show the world how Pitt is improving society through quality educating, leading edge research, and wide-ranging community support.
Help us find Roc in the video below, and join @PittTweet alumni, students, faculty, staff, family, and friends on Tuesday, February 25, for the fourth annual #PittDayofGiving! https://t.co/0JNRFbPpg9
