the government is claiming this was an act of self-defense, so it's important to remember the last time that they shot someone and flat-out, demonstrably lied through their teeth to cover up for it

What is happening at Ursinus right now appears to be directly out of the higher ed consultant playbook. Gut the institution of those who deliver on the core academic mission to ‘cut costs’ — without acknowledging the costs of those cuts. More people should be talking about this.

What Canada doesn't tell you, but should, is that you should try to enter through pre-clearance at nearly every Canadian airport (excluding Billy Bishop) if possible. You can only be denied, and not detained by ICE, if you run into trouble in pre-clearance. I speak from experience.

TBH the analysis should go the other way: anyone who believes in cutting NIH research should be challenged to find one (1) approved medication or device that did *not* rely on NIH-funded research. There aren't any. Skim any patent/publication on them and you'll see.

People might think that whatever destruction is done to science in the US, we can undo in 4 years with a Democratic president and Congress. The problem is that many areas require specialized knowledge and skills built up over years, and once that's lost, it's hard to get back.
