This week at @IthakaSR, we’ll be digging into how we engage with our academic and cultural communities. I’ve spent some time reflecting on the folks who I’ve had a chance to engage with and learn from on here lately… and this feels like a good opportunity to say thank you!
For ongoing (and frequent!) tracking of college openings, closures, finances: @rkelchen, @BryanAlexander, @ChrisMarsicano

And a special shout out to my amazing collaborator in tracking academic library responses to the pandemic early on: @lisalibrarian
For highlighting many of the real challenges and inequities that college students are facing: @saragoldrickrab, @NicoleLynnLewis, @DrPollard_MC, @LoweryHart

Have started referring to this kind of explanation as "COVID-19 data gymnastics." Any other terms out there that are surely better than what I've come up with?
Still not seeing any daily updates since 8/14 + no weekly updates since week of 8/3: carolinatogether.unc.edu/dashboard/ Image
Dashboard has now been updated and UNC-CH is going fully remote later this week.

Cannot believe this is the second time I've felt the need to tweet this in the last few months:

The idea that one of the biggest problems facing higher ed right now is the "professionalism" of faculty backgrounds, clothing, etc. while teaching is... absurd.
In case it needs to be repeated: We are still all operating under the conditions of a pandemic. The "crisis mode of spring" is not "over."
And, because I just can't help myself, I've scoured the open-ended comments in our spring survey of ~15,000 students. Can I find a single one that comments on faculty being unprofessional because of their virtual background while teaching from home? No.

Are students + higher education institutions facing tremendous uncertainty? Yes. Are there plenty of things to panic about in the near-term future? Yes. But, did 40% of students say they were unlikely to enroll in the fall? Not really.
The group of respondents - recent high school grads who were all originally planning on living on campus - were asked:

"How likely is it that you will not go to college next term because of the COVID-19 outbreak?" Image
Given that they all initially intended to attend as residential students, they could have been responding about any of (or a combination of) the following:

- living on campus
- taking classes on campus
- taking classes altogether (in any modality)

A thread on women, volunteer labor, and COVID-19

TLDR: Women continue to volunteer their time in ways that benefit their organizations and fields, despite being disproportionately affected by the pandemic. Organizations need to take note (and action).
The pandemic is causing women to disproportionately struggle. This has been well-documented: they are taking on substantial childcare (washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2020…), have more often been laid off (cnbc.com/2020/05/14/cor…), + are falling behind professionally (sr.ithaka.org/blog/what-abou…).
Yet, even under these conditions, I continue to see women disproportionately volunteering their time - on new anti-racism committees, as research participants - for work that ultimately benefits their organizations + field. I have to believe this is happening elsewhere, too.

I urge managers to read this great @scholarlykitchn piece, recognize that staff in your organization are likely facing similar issues, and reflect on the barriers that prevent them from disclosing and the ways that you can better accommodate their needs. scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2020/07/22/gue…
Here are two very simple steps I have previously taken with new staff before their first day for these reasons:
▶️ Ask about tech/space needs
▶️ Let them know I'll take them to lunch, ask if they have any preferences/restrictions, and let them choose from a few possible options
Deciding to disclose an invisible disability is ultimately a very personal decision -- but I believe that what happens during the recruiting + onboarding process makes a big difference in ensuring staff will communicate their needs in the long-term.
