Straight from the fascism 101 playbook, of course! 🙃

Struggling to keep track of all the lawsuits concerning higher ed, DEI, research grants and Trump? We were too.
That's why @insidehighered put together a legal tracker to follow 40+ cases step by step—so you don't have to.

New in @wsj: There’s long been a covenant between companies and new grads: Entry-level staff work hard for lower pay. Employers give training and a foothold in the job market
A white-collar hiring slump weakened that contract. AI now may totally break it

The loss of local news reporters over the past quarter century ha left a void that reverberates throughout our society. Less accountability for government, more opportunities for misinformation ..

If you spent 5 minutes in a Head Start preschool, you would be unable to deny how absolutely evil this is. You want to deny BABIES the opportunity to learn? Hard-working families the chance to have high-quality early childcare?!
A rule change treats the federally funded preschool program like a welfare program and bars undocumented children from enrolling. Head Start providers condemned the departure from longstanding practice. chalkbeat.org/2025/07/10/no-…
