- Reposted by Erika J. Rosenberger (she/her)Some anti-vaxeers think polio isn’t a big deal. In the US 1950s, it caused ~20,000 cases of paralysis per year. Iron lungs, crutches, and braces were everyday sites. The Trump administration wants us back in the 1950s. We can’t forget what that means. www.theatlantic.com/health/2026/...
- Reposted by Erika J. Rosenberger (she/her)🧵1/4 New paper alert! psycnet.apa.org/record/2026-... Can you celebrate diversity while undermining it? Our new paper in American Psychologist discusses how people/organizations can appear committed to diversity while their conceptualizations of diversity actively undercut it.

- Reposted by Erika J. Rosenberger (she/her)Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department. One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone. When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?
- It's over. Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut. www.dailynebraskan.com/news/adminis...

In this experiment we had 39 participants choose between 8 different PhD programs which varied in terms of region, application materials, prestige, and fees. Importantly, two of the programs had a GRE requirement and two were equivalent but did not:
- We are doing a pilot survey about how prospective PhD students in PSYCHOLOGY make decisions about applying to grad programs. If you are thinking of applying to a program in the future, and have 2-5 minutes to spare, could you take this survey? 🫶 northwestern.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

- Yesterday was the first day of school for my last year as a student at Miami University. As I'm working on job apps, it hasn't quite hit me yet. It has been a wonderful experience, and I know I will miss this place when it's time to leave. Luckily, learning will continue even after I graduate 🌈
- Reposted by Erika J. Rosenberger (she/her)I am sounding the alarm on the real crisis we face today. Donald Trump’s overreach is what our founders warned against – it is unprecedented, unwarranted, and un-American. There’s no emergency here that calls for military intervention.

- Reposted by Erika J. Rosenberger (she/her)Stunning. May was brutal for Trump in federal court: 96% loss rate ⚖️. Even GOP-appointed judges have ruled against the admin 72% of the time. District courts are doing their job defending the Constitution. Soon the Supreme Court may be the only court unwilling to defend the rule of law.
