Onko yliopistojen strategian mukaista ajaa muutoksia työehtosopimukseen, jotka aiheuttavat merkittävää kuormitusta ja stressiä työntekijöille?

Tätä kysyvät työntekijöiden edustajat yliopistojen hallituksilta tänään julkaistussa avoimessa kirjeessä.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Minusta Suomessa jengi tekee ihan samaa, että tämä on jotenkin "ihmismäistä" toimintaa. Toivotaan jotain, mutta ei ajatella sen tarkemmin. Ehkä tässä itsekkyys on kaiken takana...
"Emme ymmärtäneet, millaista tuhoa tämä hallinto saisi aikaan omassa elämässämme."

Vuoden journalisti Iida Tikka sanoi eilen SJP-gaalassa, että Yhdysvalloissa paikallinen media katosi/kadotettiin/tuhottiin 2010-luvulla.

Maa maksaa siitä hintaa nyt.

Ihmiset tarvitsevat tietoa, läheltä, arjesta.
Jennifer Piggott, 47, äänesti Trumpia, mutta sahasi omaa oksaansa: ”Emme tienneet, mitä tuhoa se toisi elämäämme”
Elon Muskin junailemat massairtisanomiset julkisilla aloilla iskevät nyt myös Trumpin omiin kannattajiin republikaanien kannatusalueilla.

Another paper alert 📰! How understory vegetation has changed over 40 years in boreal forest at high latitudes (nordia.journal.fi/article/view...). Also, Nordia publishes articles OA WITHOUT any cost to authors.
Dwarf shrub expansion and loss of lichens distinctly dominate multi-decadal changes in northern boreal understory plant communities
Northern boreal forests and treelines are particularly sensitive to the current climate change that has already resulted in increased productivity, shrub expansion and up- and northward shifts of spec...
