Viruses cause illness. Poor indoor air helps them spread. ✅ Rest at home when unwell ✅ Keep CO₂ under 800ppm ✅ Ventilate well ✅ Use HEPA air filters …and keep kids in school learning, even during peak infection months

I remember meeting him in college. It was really fast like, “B, this is my man, Chad.” In that brief meeting, I could tell he was a dude with some substance. Certainly not *only* at Howard to party. Turns out, I was right. A real class act. Rest in Power, Brother. ❤️🦬💙

The four kids shot in Stockton, California were 8, 9, 14 and 21. Why isn’t that a national tragedy? Why doesn’t that provoke the outrage that we saw with Charlie Kirk or the National Guard shooting? This country doesn’t care about children. They don’t care about gun violence.

When people say, “College isn’t for everyone,” this is what they mean. Go to college to have your ability to think critically expanded. Go to learn from experts in the field. Go to learn skills that will expand your knowledge. If you just want your priors confirmed, you can pick a house of worship

idk not to mention how very nuanced and normal the actual response here was

Trans Professors comment Mel Curth (She/They) November 16, 2025 at 2:04 PM Please note that I am not deducting points because you have certain beliefs, but instead I am deducting point for you posting a reaction paper that does not answer the questions for this assignment, contradicts itself, heavily uses personal ideology over empirical evidence in a scientific class, and is at times offensive. While you are entitled to your own personal beliefs, there is an appropriate time or place to implement them in your reflections. I encourage all students to question or challenge the course material with other empirical findings or testable hypotheses, but using your own personal beliefs to argue against the findings of not only this article, but the findings of countless articles across psychology, biology, sociology, etc. is not best practice. You argue that abiding by normative gender roles is beneficial (it is perfectly fine to believe this. but to then say that evervone should act TPUSA OU
Trans Professors comment the same, while also saying that people aren't pressured into gendered expectations is contradictory, especially since your arguments reflect a religious pressure to act in gender-stereotypical ways. You can say that strict gender norms don't create gender stereotypes, but that isn't true by definition of what a stereotype is. Please note that acknowledging gender stereotypes does not immediately denote a negative connotation, a nuance this article discusses. Additionally, to call an entire group of people "demonic" is highly offensive, especially a minoritized population. You are entitled to your own beliefs, but this isn't a vague narrative of "society pushes lies," but instead the result of countless years developing psychological and scientific evidence for these claims and directly interacting with the communities involved. You may personally disagree with this, but that TPUSA OU 2
Trans Professors comment doesn't change the fact that every major psychological, medical, pediatric, and psychiatric association in the United States acknowledges that, biologically and psychologically, sex and gender is neither binary nor fixed. I implore you apply some more perspective and empathy in your work. If you personally disagree with the findings, then by all means share your criticisms, but make sure to do so in a way that is appropriate and using the methodology of empirical psychology, as aligned with the learning goals in this class. If you have any additional questions or concerns about this or would like some additional educational resources, I would be happy to discuss this further and provide you with them. 3 TPUSA OU
Additional professor Megan Waldron (She/Her/Hers) November 16, 2025 at 3:09 PM Samantha, I am the other instructor for this course, and I have also taken the time to read your paper. I concur with Mel on the grade you received. This paper should not be considered as a completion of the assignment. Everyone has different ways in which they see the world, but in an academic course such as this you are being asked to support your ideas with empirical evidence and higher-level reasoning. I find it concerning that you state at the beginning of your paper that you do not think bullying ("teasing") is a bad thing. In addition, your paper directly and harshly criticizes your peers and their opinions, which are just as valuable as yours. Disagreeing with others is fine, but there is a respectful way to go about it. That goes for discussion posts as well as reaction papers. Please employ more thoughtfulness in your future assignments TPUSA OU

Flu is spreading earlier than last year, with children heavily impacted. We call on the Minister for Education and the HSE to update public health advice to schools to account for airborne transmission of flu. Press release is available here: www.cleanairadvocacyirela….
PRESS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ISSUED 30/11/2025 Urgent Action Needed to Quell Spread of Flu in Schools Flu is spreading earlier than last year, with children heavily impacted. Public health advice to schools should be updated to account for airborne transmission of flu. Clean Air Advocacy Ireland (CAAI) has written to Dr Abigail Collins, the HSE’s clinical lead on child public health, and to Hildegarde Naughton, the Minister for Education and Youth, to ask that public health advice to schools be urgently updated to reduce the spread of the current flu wave. The appeal comes in the wake of a warning last week from Children’s Health Ireland (CHI) that its emergency departments and urgent care centres had witnessed a surge in presentations of children with flu-like symptoms. Full text available here: https://www.cleanairadvocacyireland.org/clean-air-blog/fh3sa8yzo73ra7sn4gitahml3pm9zc-plssg
In addition to advising parents to keep symptomatic children at home, CAAI wants schools to be properly informed about how to reduce the spread of common airborne illnesses, including flu, RSV, and Covid-19. This advice includes: Keeping classrooms well ventilated Using air filters in classrooms. Using CO2 monitors to measure indoor air quality. CO2 levels should be kept below 800ppm. “Flu has hit Ireland almost a month earlier than last year,” says Kieran Ryan of CAAI,” and we know that school-acquired infections can lead to flu spreading in the wider community, with children bringing an infection home to their siblings, parents, and older relatives.” “It would be prudent to issue updated public health advice to schools immediately to try to reduce transmission of flu, or else we can expect a severe flu season that will have a major impact across schools, hospitals, and other parts of our society.”

Bulk of vaccine misinformation originates from places like CHD/Kennedy and folks in his sphere or who share those views. Many of those in the first group do like McCarthy did--do a Google search, and then they end up with misinfo from the "disinformation dozen" and other AV influencers.

Every time a health insurance claim is denied or a premium is increased, a billionaire CEO gets richer. They don’t have to worry about medical care. They get the best care money can buy while denying that right to everyone else. Universal healthcare now.

Another example of why pregnancy is unsafe in America. You won’t have reproductive freedom. You could be criminally charged for pregnancy loss. You could be given drugs during labour and then reported to social services for a positive drug test. Despicable.

Kids know better than to use the R slur. That’s because we’ve fought for decades to remove it from everyday vernacular. This isn’t about being woke. It’s about refusing to discriminate and insult people with disabilities. Trump using that slur was disrespectful to all of us.

Walz on Trump calling him the r-word: "We all know both as an educator & parent that using that term is just so damaging. It's hurtful. We have fought 3 decades to get this out of our schools. Kids know better. But this is what Donald Trump has done. He's normalized this type of hateful behavior."
