This man did this out of public service to public lands, what we would want from all public officials. Donate if you can. “Gaddis, a single father to an 11-year-old daughter, has started a GoFundMe as he searches for a new job. As of Tuesday morning, the campaign had raised more than $26,000.”

So Utah, having passed a transphobic bathroom bill, has launched an online form for people to snitch on folks they think are in the "wrong" bathroom or locker room. Be a real shame if people on the Internet flooded it with fake reports: ut-sao-special-prod.web.app/sex_basis_co...

I wrote _Campus Misinformation_ to help people recognize how exaggerations, distortions, and falsehoods about universities threaten higher ed and democracy. Campus misinformation erupted into public discourse around campus protests in the mid-2010s. It's happening again. 1/10

After reading this article, and given what's happened at Texas A&M the last few years, it's clear the university's administration places a much higher priority on appeasing right-wing donors and alums than protecting faculty. It's beyond incompetence; it's active malfeasance, and overtly racist.

This is what it feels like to be in the cross hairs of the campaign against DEI.

this guy sounds like a huge asshole and the fact that he’s complaining about race and identity at NPR gives me a few ideas about the actual source of his discontent and the reason he went running to bari weiss’ rag www.nytimes.com/2024/04/11/b...
