Time's up. I'm leaving the bird site for #mastodon where I'm @[email protected]. https://t.co/k4G9lfbknf; it's a better place. Don't be owned. (This twitter account may still auto-crosspost a bit from my mastodon for a while.) #TwitterMigration See you on the other side!

[Ron McClamrock ([email protected]) @profron]

My department is hiring. The timetable is a bit rushed, but maybe consider applying. It's a great place to work.

@Helenreflects I have a no-screens policy. At the end of the semester, I poll them about it, and get about 70-80% in favor of the policy. Not decisive, but interesting feedback.
