Texas professors, advocates protest faculty, curriculum restrictions Yes, that’s us! There’s still time to defeat #SB37. It’s a priority of the Lt. Gov. but based on myths, not reality. It will greatly damage Texas colleges and universities. #TxLege #TxEd statesman.com/story/news/sta…

This is not good. Colleges & universities should resist calls for closed, secretive searches; involve faculty representatives in all stages of the search process; & provide the entire faculty & other members of the campus community with the opportunity to meet with finalists.

Police chief was just asked if students should carry their documentation on campus now that the university police has been deputized to do immigration enforcement. His answer: “that would help.” FIU is a show me your papers campus. Sad to see this at this otherwise great school.

BREAKING: We just won in court to block Trump’s attempt to demolish the Dept of Education. This historic court order will stop mass firings of civil servants whose work helps students with disabilities, provides support for parents, and ensures higher education is affordable.

“these actions are also heightening the climate of fear, anxiety, uncertainty that has disrupted the lives of students, faculty and campuses across the country in recent months” All too true. 😰Solidarity with our international students and colleagues. 🧡

The assault on higher education continues. With the potential to keep international students who aren't aligned with this administration's ideology out of our colleges and universities, we've unlocked a new level in the authoritarian regime. politico.com/news/2025/05/2…

Community colleges & K-12 schools also rely on NSF grants for workforce development & career & tech ed. Cuts to NSF grants not only harm research unis, they threaten the entire STEM education pipeline, severely limiting opportunity for all students. insidehighered.com/news/governmen…

“We’re seeing a growing movement within civil society, that has to be maintained, & has to be maintained for years. The damage that the Trump administration is doing is absolutely beyond the pale & has never, never been equaled in American life with regard to higher education.”
