"No faculty member, student, or worker should face the stripping of their livelihood for protesting a genocide or speaking out against corporate and political complicity. Academic institutions must serve as sanctuaries for rigorous debate, and free expression, rather than capitulating to the financial leverage of trustees or the political pressures of congressional intimidation campaigns"

Starting with the foundations is not engaging and can lead to 'learning without understanding why'1/2, idea in next toot

Missing an EOS filing deadline now means accruing unlawful presence, which can trigger the 3-year or 10-year reentry bars.” #HigherEd #GraduateStudent #StudentVisa
