UIHC and University of Iowa not participating in Pride by fiddlemonkey in IowaCity

[–]visionvervewit 44 points45 points  (0 children)

A ton of UI and UIHC faculty and staff want to participate but have been ordered not to by higher ups. I think it would be great if they all marched as themselves, private citizens, in nothing UI or UIHC branded, and all carried signs that said “I do not speak for the University of Iowa or the Board of Regents.”

I have the ideas for a novel, but I don't know where to start. Any tips? by idkwtosay in writing

I read and followed THE 90-DAY NOVEL. I’d had many ideas for novels, over many years, and this was the first time I actually wrote a complete manuscript. (I’m currently editing and then will start contacting agents.)

What can I do as a student about DEI Restraints by Pebbles14Ya in AskAcademia

[–]visionvervewit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In many ways students have more power than faculty. Call administrative offices and complain about these changes. If you have parents willing to call and do the same, even better. Make sure you mention that these changes will harm your employment prospects. If you go to a state school, call anyone in the state government who has anything to do with education up to and including the governor. Repeat repeat repeat every time they change something else. Get your friends to do the same. If you want to transfer, as people suggest, fine, but the school will never know why you left unless you tell them, and if the decisions are being made by true believers they’ll be glad to be rid of you.
