You guys. We passed this couple in the cemetery today. They were putting these flowers on every grave. When I asked if this were a Memorial Day gesture, she said, 'No, we just got married and we wanted to do something meaningful with the flowers left over from our wedding.' ❤️!

I always tell my students to write down their ideas. Even if you don’t yet have the skillset you need, you’re not sure what data you’ll use, or you don’t think you have time for a new project. Keep a written log of your research ideas. You never know when you’ll go back to it.

I know I’m late, but I recently watched an episode of ‘Good Times Black Again’ and it was so antithetical to the classic ‘Good Times’. It felt like a minstrel show by mostly white men casting Black cartoon characters. The choice not to do it this show was right there!

It should not require Victims of domestic violence to have video proof to be believed. The expectation that there is always video or that video must be exist for a claim to be valid is a dangerous precedent or condition to set before extending validity to the claims.

There’s a special place in hell for that man and for the people and corporations who accepted money to cover up his crimes.

I did too. I got really worried that time she jumped out of a moving vehicle to get away from him. That’s not something people do when they feel safe

Currently carving out research questions that link my interest in truancy and my interest in school funding, so it was great talking to Mark from EdWeek about using ADA for school funding…it takes money away from potential solutions to improve student attendance.
