I’m assuming the same applies to video conferencing with work colleagues.

Just got an email from a prof: “As a reminder, you are required to wear clothes during Zoom meetings.” Rules are made when they become necessary, not before.

I just discovered that one university where I teach allows students to record and pronounce their names IN the electronic roster so that faculty can listen to it and pronounce it right. Why doesn't every university do this? (And I bet most students don't even know about it!)

One day after a dog died in an overhead bin and Republicans demand regulation that'll prevent it from happening again. Meanwhile, six years and 7,000 kids dead from gun violence since Sandy Hook and Republicans refuse any regulation that'll prevent it from happening again.

I will be filing a bill tomorrow that will prohibit airlines from putting animals in overhead bins. Violators will face significant fines. Pets are family.
