From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.

And just like that, I have a 4 year old.
Becoming a first-time parent during a global pandemic was not what I’d envisioned. But, I gained the gift of time at home to watch her grow in ways I’d only hoped. ❤️
Happy birthday my super smart, wild, creative Myla girl. You are so loved. 🥰🤗

I’m a lover (and collector) of good copy writing. Any time I see something, I save it as future creative inspiration, higher ed or not. And, I believe it deserves to be shared!
Here’s one today that I think hit so many marks: Burst Toothbush. 👏 I literally laughed aloud.

I am one of these who have been waiting since July for PSLF relief after 10 years of consistent payments and rule-following to a T. I don’t know what my debt will look like after January, but I don’t have a lot of hope. 😔
Rep. Bobby Scott is urging Biden's Education Dept. to cancel student debt for borrowers who have qualified for relief under PSLF and borrower defense before Trump takes office: "I am deeply concerned about the future and whether much of this progress will be undone"
