I’ve been holding off because of this. Not sure how this will work since I’m a DIC council member, but I feel like we have to do something
26-year ACS member here; time to renew. ⁦@AmerChemSociety⁩ encourages renewal online to save postage. Postage is not my concern! The dismantling of ⁦@cenmag⁩ (the TOP stated benefit of membership) is VERY concerning. ⁦What’s going on? Renew or not renew?☹️😥

So sorry to hear of Ken Sauer’s passing. As the mentor of my post doc advisor (does this make him my academic great uncle or something? )he had such a big effect on my work and my trajectory.
The College sadly announces that Professor Emeritus Kenneth Sauer has passed away. chemistry.berkeley.edu/news/…

Diversity is smarter than homogeneity. New data on 6.6 million science papers in all 45 subfields of medicine: mixed-gender teams generate more novel and influential work than same-gender teams. Similarity breeds groupthink. Variety fuels deeper reflection and broader learning.

Please review our instructions on the state’s new anti-CRT laws. It’s not that you can’t teach about the existence of racial inequalities, you just can’t connect them to the institutions, power structures, or individuals who created, maintain and continue to benefit from them.

Who is with me that if a reviewer says something is "not novel", they then must provide a reference?

The governor and regents are committed to assuring that students who arrive at our campus and choose not to learn anything are free to do so without flunking out. By chance, that is also the goal of our new retention policy!
