Early last year, we published our book, “Teacher Diversity and Student Success,” through Harvard Education Press. Though it feels like eons ago, it was barely two years ago when we were putting finishing touches on the manuscript in the late spring of 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic had just recently shut down public schools, and the murder of George Floyd at the hands of police had triggered a wave of protests on racial justice. It wasn’t clear at that point how long or deep of an impact either of these developments would have on education in general, nor our book topic in particular.

Now, though, there’s enough distance from the book’s writing that an update feels warranted to recontextualize the book’s arguments against these tectonic shifts in society. Even more, during the past two years, we have seen a flowering of research on teacher diversity and student-teacher matching, and it’s worth providing an update on the book’s content, too. In this post, we reframe our book’s theses considering these new developments.

Our understanding of student-teacher race matching expands

First, let’s briefly recap the book’s argument: We have a long history of race-based educational achievement and attainment gaps in the U.S., which continue to persist despite many efforts to remediate them. We know teachers matter a great deal to student learning and future outcomes, though we have a longstanding disconnect between teacher diversity and a rapidly diversifying student body. Our primary thesis is that promoting more racial diversity among teachers and more inclusive work environments in schools will be good for everyone and disproportionately benefit students of color, helping to narrow these longstanding educational gaps.

New studies in this area published over the last two years have supported this thesis, strengthening the case for why teacher diversity matters now more than ever. The book discusses the evidence that having a same-race teacher improves test scores, a student’s likelihood of being selected for gifted and talented programs, graduating high school, and intending to enroll in college. More recent evidence adds a variety of other student benefits to this list: Increased exposure to same-race teachers is also associated with improvements in course grades, students’ attendance, students’ grit and interpersonal self-management, their working memory, and the likelihood of taking an advanced math course.

One persistent weakness of the research on race matching is that much (though not all) of the evidence comes exclusively from Black teachers matching with Black students. Fortunately, new studies have begun to fill in that hole in our understanding. One of us (Lindsay) was involved with a study using Texas data to document multiple benefits of exposure to Hispanic teachers on Hispanic students; that study found several short- and medium-term improvements in student outcomes. Similarly, Castro and Calzada explore the relationship between Latino teachers, bilingualism, and teaching practices. They find identity and bilingualism mutually reinforce instructional practices that are especially effective for Latino students. Also, evidence from New York City finds reductions in exclusionary discipline for race-matched students, with the reductions holding across distinct racial pairings: Black, Latino, and Asian Americans.

We should also note that novel studies suggest diversity beyond the classroom matters, too. Diverse school leadership is associated with a greater likelihood of employing diverse teachers (to students’ benefit overall).  Also, diversity among professional staff including school counselors and administrators is associated with improved test scores and reductions in absences in Maryland schools.

Everyone benefits from teacher diversity, and everyone can be part of the solution

The book takes a full chapter to unpack how racial matching influences students in the classroom: namely, teachers’ differing expectations for students of diverse backgrounds, teachers as role models to impressionable students, and the use of culturally relevant pedagogy. Recent evidence adds important nuance here, showing that both stronger student-teacher relationships and more effective, tailored teaching practices are key mediators enabling the positive impacts teachers of color have on students of color. And interestingly, teacher experience appears to be a crucial factor narrowing teachers’ differing expectations of students by race over time.

Further, a remarkable new study from David Blazar uses randomized assignment for teachers in 4th and 5th grades to explore how teachers of color teach differently from white teachers. The randomized assignment design ensures that differences observed across classrooms are causal; and the usual standardized test scores are paired with rich data infrequently seen in education studies, including student socioemotional outcomes and teacher practices and beliefs.

Blazar finds teachers of color spend significantly more time preparing lessons and differentiating instruction for students. They were also more likely to hold growth mindset beliefs about students and spend more time developing relationships with students and families. If these differences sound like good teaching practices and beliefs overall, not those aimed specifically at helping students of color, you’re right. And this leads to one of the more notable findings from the study: Blazar finds white students’ test scores improve when taught by teachers of color, too.

Prior work has documented benefits for white students exposed to teachers of color, though these findings have been limited to changes in students’ attitudes and perspectives, not their test scores. This is the first study to show a positive impact on white students’ academics. Though a single positive study doesn’t upend the entire literature, it’s particularly encouraging that the benefits are linked to differences in teacher attitudes and practice, not simply the teachers’ racial differences.

This suggests broader adoption of these beliefs and practices helps all students, even as students of color disproportionately benefit. Moreover, these findings reinforce our book’s thesis that the appropriate policy prescription is not simply to diversify the teacher workforce—a critical, though insufficient step—but also relies on professional development to improve practices among existing, predominantly white teachers. This squares with other emerging research showing that training modules for teachers can have notable effects on teachers’ practices, helping to narrow gaps in key student outcomes by race.

Recontextualizing the need for teacher diversity

The world beyond our book’s main topic has meaningfully changed in the last two years, too. The biggest shift has been due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent fallout for schools and students. Students of color were both more likely to attend schools that had extended periods of remote instruction and more likely to fall behind academically during the pandemic. Thus, the problem motivating the need for a diverse teacher workforce has grown more acute.

On an encouraging note, though, the pressing need for talent exacerbated by the pandemic may have helped loosen barriers to entry for teachers of color, thereby increasing teacher diversity (at least in Massachusetts). The higher-than-normal turnover among teachers could even be viewed as an opportunity for vanguard states and districts to make quick progress on teacher diversity—if they prioritize recruiting and supporting teachers of color.

The pandemic broke out amidst growing tensions between demands for a more comprehensive racial reconciliation in society and resistance to teaching or training that acknowledges racism playing a role in modern society. These culture war fights didn’t start in schools, but the classroom has emerged as a key battlefield for debates about the role of racism in America’s past and present. Thus, our call for policies promoting teacher diversity and inclusion in schools has taken on greater political significance since our writing and could be met with resistance in some areas.

We do not intend our book to be seen as a partisan statement. On the contrary, we see our work as helping to establish the empirical basis and the logical case for prioritizing teacher race as a policy lever—implicitly building a bridge between what we saw as disparate camps in education policy that often pitted teacher quality against teacher diversity.

Rather than being trade–offs, we argue that the benefits of diverse teachers and inclusive schools compare favorably against many popular education policies. Like class size reductions, for example, teacher diversity will have varied and durable benefits for students, but at a far lower expected cost. Teacher diversity will also promote a more equitable public education system overall.

Providing access to teacher diversity should be part of ongoing policy efforts to ensure universal access to teacher quality. Policymakers should prioritize diversity even as challenges around vacancies and shortages arise. Indeed, the current circumstances show the need among students is greater than ever, the window of opportunity to diversify the workforce is wider than ever, and the empirical basis for prioritizing diversity is stronger than ever.

dana scully + javier peña one shot thingy because i did one for fox + javi before. tw for talk about drugs & talk about a pregnant woman dying. anyways here is it:

when javier meets dana, she is lovesick and bruised, & perhaps a little bitter. none of it shows at first. she comes to his shoulders in the her too expensive boots & flashes her fbi badge with an air of someone who is used to being distrusted. he wouldn’t have thought to ask her for identification. this is the first thing he thinks, struck by how bad he can sometimes be at this goddamn job, & then, suddenly: she is pretty. he shoves the thought aside when she asks him for the details of the case, so matter-of-fact it forces him into professionalism.

dana scully is not sexless — her suit hugs her curves, she wears colored lipsticks and eyeshadow, & she smells nice, feminine — but her voice has a sense of command to it, & so he tries his best to pretend she is. she is another american agent, stomping on his ground. they all try to prescribe solutions to equations that can’t be solved with simple math. when he speaks to her, his tone is some place between professional and softened disdain. he doesn’t hate her but what she stands for. she regards him with steely blue eyes & shows no weaknesses. she is used to working with men.

on a terrible tuesday morning he stands in the corner as she does an autopsy on a young woman who died suddenly. he suspects drugs, ingested in another country and opened up inside of her someplace between here and there. he’s seen it before. dana isn’t sure what she believes. in washington, mulder is losing his faith and she’s here in texas, trying to find a reason to make him hold onto it. javier wants to show her he’s serious too, but he blanches when the scalpel hits the skin. she is so focused, though, so she doesn’t notice, speaking intricate details into the cool air of the morgue. he turns around, pinches his eyes closed. he has seen death before, in gruesome forms, but somehow it seems so sterile, so lifeless, placed on the steel table and spoken about in dana’s doctorly monotone voice like that. he hates it, escapes through the door and balances on the heel of his boots in the parking lot. he smokes a cigarette, then another one, before going back to the office.

for sake of professionalism, javier does his best not to speak to dana about anything other than business, and even then, he is scarce. she is fbi. he is dea. he isn’t so good with women. or maybe it’s that he’s too good with them. whatever the reason, he understands that he must keep his distance. she doesn’t make it hard, not with the way she is bossy and straightforward and completely uncaring about him. he doesn’t think she’s a tight-ass, like some of the other men do, but he is aware that she is serious. he doesn’t hold it against her, but he doesn’t love her for it either. she is just another agent to him.

that is until the next girl. he’s seen this before too: a pregnant woman, dead. drugs, he suspects again, because what else could it be? she offers him no theory of her own and he doesn’t probe. they make her do the autopsy and something inside of him urges him to go with her. maybe god. maybe his mother. he doesn’t know, but he’s too much of a coward to not believe that it’s something more than instinct. she struggles. after it’s over her blue eyes wet with tears and she lets him hug her. he is not mulder. she forgets herself for a moment. he has the familiarity of the leather jacket and a presence that is comforting, gentle. he holds her hesitantly but firmly, somehow, & she tells him she’s never done one like that before. he understands. it was like that for me too, the first time, he says. his voice is kind & hushed, like mulder’s gets with children. she feels so safe, less alone.

they go over a lot of anecdotes when he takes them to a local bar. she looks like she could use a drink, so he brings her to one. really all she wants to do is curl into bed & call mulder, but she is fiery with anger. scully, you’re making this personal, mulder had told her. so she doesn’t do that. she gets into javier peña’s car & is driven to a bar, & she tells him everything she can think, without the big stuff. mostly it is a picture of her life before mulder. that’s how she always does, with people she doesn’t know well enough. normal people. she doesn’t say mulder’s name once. she refers to him as her partner when she has to at all, like it’s that causal.

when a country song plays over the jukebox & she is pleasantly tipsy, dana does something dana does not do; she flirts. javi is too good and no good with women, so he flirts back. his eyes are dark, so dark, & the way he flirts is so unlike mulder too. there’s no boyishness to him, to his jokes. he is more like burt reynolds, or the men from the old movies she likes to watch; brooding, mysterious, charming. he delivers his lines as well as cary grant by the time they reach their second drink, & she responds like some katharine hepburn, clever & charming in her own right.

he kisses her in the dark of her motel room, one hand pressed under her dress shirt to feel the warmth of her. they undress methodically, undoing their own buttons. when she puts her hands on his chest, they are cold, doctorly. she thinks how unlike mulder he is many times, repeating it, & it feels nice, to know she can be wanted by a good man. a normal one. not that mulder isn’t good, or relatively normal. but she took it too personally with him. he doesn’t want her. javier does. oh god, does he. the mattress groans as he presses into her with a fevered urgency. javier fucks her like she wants to be fucked, fingers bruising her hips as he slams into her & any thought of mulder or the remains of her life as it is, gone. he takes her from behind, draws her body up close when his orgasm stutters throughout him. his hand brushes against her cross when he makes her cum with his fingers & he realizes maybe they are the same. there’s a rosary on the rearview mirror of his car, parked just outside the window. they come together nicely, forget themselves successfully. in the morning they are back to business. javier is not hurt by it. he’s sensible and seasoned in affairs like these. she’s fbi; he’s dea.

the case is not x-files worthy. she tries her best to think like mulder, looks for all the clues, but can’t find them anywhere. it’s just drugs — dea business. when she calls him, mulder tells her he thought as much, that she shouldn’t beat herself up. she didn’t land on the piece of the puzzle, a slice of conspiracy. maybe next time. she is so sick with guilt she wants to just tell him what happened. but she doesn’t, least she makes it personal. she takes some personal days, says she’s going to visit her brother. he accepts this blindly & in a fit of jealously she thinks of diana, how he’s too distracted by that woman to care. scully does not seek her brother but more of javier.

by the end of it, javier is no closer to solving anything. he buries his emotion in dana, wastes an entire day wrapped up in the sheets with the red headed woman. they talk about nothing, about everything, & by the end of their time together, they feel better & worse. he is never going to see her again, & he wants to. it’s been a long time since he’s felt an ache like that. she is never going to see him again, but she imagines in another life she could’ve loved him just as much as mulder. maybe even in this one, but she won’t leave mulder. can’t. she buried a bullet in his shoulder once & dammit, she’ll do it again if she has to. he doesn’t have to love her, but he won’t ruin himself.

she goes back to washington & mulder does notice, but they don’t talk about it. it makes him dizzy with envy. he is betrayed & he wonders briefly if this is because of what he said. of course it is. but then: not everything is about you mulder. javier peña is nothing & everything in the grand scheme of things. she thinks of him for weeks, sometimes with guilt, sometimes in relief. javier thinks about her always, forever, like she’s the one that got away, but he does that with them all. he doesn’t leave her with visible tattoos or ugly bruising all over, but a few years later when she sleeps with mulder for the first time, she will find he has left her with a lasting impression. she was so focused on how unlike mulder he was that she failed to see how entirely like him he was.

Candidates who take the exam while using a calculator

TI 30X IIS vs TI30XS The only calculators allowed in the examination room are those listed in the following sentences. You are not allowed to bring any books, papers, computers, or other electronic devices inside the test room. Candidates may ONLY utilise the TI-30Xa or TI-30X II* (IIS solar or IIB battery), TI-30X MultiView, or the battery- or solar-powered Texas Instruments BA-35 type calculator (XS Solar or XB Battery). During an exam, candidates are allowed to use as many approved calculators as they like. The exam will be invalidated if you use a calculator that isn't on this list. Both the SOA examinations and the combination SOA/CAS examinations are permitted to utilise the same calculator models. Candidates may use any model that complies with the requirements of the Joint Board for the Enrollment of Actuaries for the Enrolled Actuaries (EA) examinations. A list of requirements can be found in the Joint Board Examination Program. Each and every SOA model that has been authorised complies with Joint Board requirements. It is not permitted to bring calculator instructions into the testing room. The calculator must be taken out of its carrying case during the test so the supervisor may verify it is an authorised model. Candidates who take the exam while using a calculator other than one of the authorised models will not be graded because of this. Calculators must be provided by the candidates themselves. They can be purchased from some of the above book distributors, or Texas Instruments can be reached directly at Epsstore.ti.com. * The exam supervisor must clear the memory of the TI-30X II (IIS solar or IIB battery), TI-30X MultiView (XS solar or XB battery), BA II Plus, and BA II Plus Professional before the candidates can enter the exam room. By clearing the calculator, the BA II Plus and BA II Plus Professional are returned to their factory default settings. The results of the equation’s solution are shown on the second line, and you can alter the original equation whatever you like for a recalculation using the four arrow keys on the calculator’s front. Even better, by continuously hitting the up arrow, you may search through a cache of numerous earlier computations, allowing you to go back and see the solution to a challenge. When solar power is available, the device uses it; however, if light levels are low, it can fall back on the internal batteries (included). There are modes for scientific and engineering notation, three types of angles (degrees, radians, and grades), and even one- or two-variable statistical modes. Additionally, five variables can be given their own memory spaces. A Snap-On cover for the calculator’s back is included with the gadget. Key characteristics: Automatically or by entering specific x values, examine an x, y table of values for a certain function. The arithmetic Print mode allows users to enter and read computations in conventional math notation, including stacked fractions, exponents, precise square roots, and more. TI Nspire CX II CAS On the same screen, you may enter many Calculations, compare the results, and look for trends thanks to special design elements. On the same screen, you may enter many calculations, compare the results, and look for trends thanks to special design elements. The MathPrint mode allows users to enter and read computations in conventional math notation, including stacked fractions, exponents, precise square roots, and more. Use the toggle key to quickly view fractions and decimals in different formats. The TI-30XS does not consistently and accurately handle order of operations. As a scientific instructor, I would NOT suggest using this calculator in any course that involves huge or small numbers. In the previous 15 years, I have used every other scientific calculator that accurately handles scientific notation. Pick any of them, but preferably NOT this one.

Where is There Jobs for Industrial Engineers?

Understanding the responsibilities and employment prospects for this career is a good idea before determining where to hunt for a job as an industrial engineer. Understanding the wage range for this occupation is also crucial. Industrial engineers often work with big companies with intricate manufacturing methods. To build and deploy solutions, these businesses need industrial engineers with exceptional qualifications.

For industrial engineers, the employment picture is favorable. This industry is expanding more quickly than most other professions. This industry focuses on creating cutting-edge technology that helps businesses to increase the effectiveness of industrial operations. There are other employment choices available in this field as well. Many students are increasingly interested in this profession as a result of the expanding need for industrial engineers in the manufacturing industry.

Industrial engineers may go from entry-level employment to more senior ones in addition to being in demand. By 2029, there will be a about 3% growth in the number of engineering positions, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The need for industrial engineers is anticipated to grow by 10% during the next ten years. To prepare for this job, students should take math and physics subjects all through high school. Graduate industrial engineering programs also need strong skills in research design and data analysis.

Industrial engineers often spend their days at workplaces or offices. They may watch manufacturing employees assemble components or examine information gathered by others. They need to be effective team players. Additionally, they may need to visit several workplaces to watch procedures and assess data. Industrial engineers often work full-time. However, their schedules might change.

Controlling the flow of a production process is the job of an industrial engineer. They strive to make sure that all processes are effective and that the goods adhere to quality requirements. They are responsible for creating and altering processes, ensuring that resources flow properly, and minimizing waste. They could also assist in creating budgets and monitoring KPIs.

High-level analytical thinking and communication abilities are required of industrial engineers. Additionally, they need to be well-versed in production techniques. They must also have outstanding leadership qualities and superb attention to detail. You need a bachelor's degree and a solid grasp of engineering standards and procedures to become an industrial engineer. You also need to be adept at data analysis and possess problem-solving abilities. You must do a thorough analysis and have the ability to set priorities.

Planning projects well is another strong suit of industrial engineers. They have to figure out how many people and machinery are required to do a job. Additionally, they must understand how to control suppliers and guarantee that raw materials adhere to quality requirements. Industrial engineers also need to be proficient at utilizing computer programs like AutoCAD.

Systems and plans are created by industrial engineers to improve the effectiveness of production processes. By creating systems that combine resources, they minimize waste and increase productivity. They are in charge of creating production reports and inventory evaluations in addition to all of the above. They are also well-versed in manufacturing equipment. Additionally, they are knowledgeable in Just-In-Time planning, statistical process control, and lean manufacturing approaches. Industrial engineers also create processes, equipment lists, controls and monitor and assess staff productivity.

States differ in their industrial engineer salaries on a yearly basis. For instance, a salary of $113,920 is typical in New Mexico. Additionally, Texas, Washington, and California pay more than average for this occupation. With a rise of 31.7% over the last five years, Montana now has the highest average wage for industrial engineers.

Due to the many sectors that need their expertise, industrial engineers are highly sought-after specialists. Professionals with their particular expertise and experience are in high demand. Depending on their degree of education and experience, their wages might vary from $57,950 to $136,930.

Industrial engineers get quite different salaries depending on the company. In the United States, a full-time worker makes an average pay of $81,010. However, for people with less training and experience, this average is lower. Even while engineers with more experience tend to earn greater salaries on average, even those with less schooling may expect to make a respectable living.

A beginning industrial engineer might earn up to $51,943 per year. Comparing this to the national average, there has been a rise of 3%. The pay for a higher-level industrial engineer position will be better, however. A mid-level industrial engineer's pay might vary by up to $25,500. It is important to remember that the wage range for this profession might vary greatly based on the business and the amount of expertise.

hi I usually love ur takes n some of them have literally meant a lot to me when I was struggling to find myself n somewhat still am but not this time. there's absolutely no need to even try to defend the rich texan man jus cus disappointment isn't a new thing for u guys who've been in the fandom for years. horrible behaviour w/ fans need not be normalised under any circumstances n there's just no need to say 'oh the rich white man mustn't have heard the question or the crying he's not like that.' No. Just no. The solution of going in w/ no expectations may be rational but that's not what happened right. We fully expected to be disappointed wrt destiel n I personally expected a full jomophobe panel tbh but not this shit w/ the grieving fan & girl!jack. if ppl are calling him out on being shitty I absolutely don't see the need to call it an overexaggeration on our part. Sorry it got too long. Sorry if I've hurt you in any way, not my intention. I love you and your patience.

okay so i got a lot of asks yesterday, the day Jensen Said The Thing About Jack, far more than i can possibly answer. and while the majority were positive support (and thank you so much to everyone who sent support, i see you and i love you), but i got several hostile, antagonistic asks, and there was a particular reoccurring theme in them that i did not have the cognitive energy to address yesterday.

however, i have now had time to have a good old fashioned shower argument session, so i'm going to write this out, and i'm choosing this ask because it was at least less hostile than others.

here's the thing. basically everyone who was hostile to me used the exact same words: "why are you defending the rich white middle-aged texan man."

they said those words over and over. rich white middle-aged texan man. rich white middle-aged texan man.

now, if you don't know, i happen to be a white person who has lived in texas my entire life, and is closer to middle-aged than i'd prefer. just so we're all starting on the same page here.

while it's a dangerous thing to do on tumblr, i would like to try and deconstruct some of the logic here.

it appears as though the argument to this statement is simply, "this person has multiple axes of privilege, therefore he is wrong by default and everyone agreeing with him is wrong by default." it appears as though the argument is, "a debate on morality and correct vs incorrect is won or lost based on the amount of privilege held by those having the debate".

because, let me make it perfectly clear: i never said that jensen did absolutely nothing wrong. i never "poor baby"d him. i said that he was probably stressed out and anxious and he probably didn't mean it to come out the way it sounded, but i completely understood why people felt grossed out and upset by what he said. i said that i would like for someone to sit him down and explain to him why what he said was gross so he could do better, because i think that he's a sincere person would do better once he knows better. i did not pull the "stop being so mean to my poor little meow meow" routine. i discussed the subject at length, with what i think is a proper degree of nuance.

but every time i wrote 500 words of nuance, somebody else told me "stop defending the rich white middle aged texan man."

and i don't want to get into a whole essay here, but like..... do you people understand that each one of those things are not, in of themselves, bad?

yes, jensen is "rich", but is not wealthy. if you don't know the difference between 10 million and 10 billion, please do some math. he's a c list celebrity, not elon musk. yes, jensen is white. so am i. so is misha. so are lots of quite decent people. yes, jensen is middle aged. are we really gonna get ageist here and act like not being 20 is a character flaw? all of you will be middle aged someday.

yes, jensen is from texas. do you know why texas is shitty? because of gerrymandering and voter suppression, not because the people who live here suck worse than anywhere else. i see people make posts going "lmao he's literally from texas" like it's hilarious. donald trump was born in new york. what's your fucking point?

and yes, jensen is a man. is radfem rhetoric really so pervasive that i need to say that being a man is not bad? i mean like, it's one thing to vent and joke about men as a class, it's another thing entirely to act as though being a man makes you a bad person. men are not bad. men are fucking great. i love men.

and the thing is, i say all of this, but of course you know it already. because two days ago you knew that jensen was a rich white middle-aged texan man, and you still called him "king" and parasocialized like fucking crazy. when you thought he was gonna go out on stage and say "dean wants cas to fuck him in the ass" you LOVED him, you wanted to suck his dick. you didn't care that he was a rich white middle-aged texan.

but, when he didn't say the things you were demanding he say, you turned on him. he wasn't your king anymore. and then he fumbled a lame joke that was, at worst, casually sexist. (i will no longer entertain anyone saying he sexualized a child. if you cannot understand that alex calvert is in his thirties i do not know what to say to you anymore.) and it's completely fair to say "i don't like that joke, it was casually sexist and made me feel gross." that is completely fair.

BUT. with that, you have to admit that you're not upset about jensen being a rich white middle-aged texan man, you're upset about what he said. and, again, that's fair, as long as you're not twisting it into shit it wasn't. anyone who's upset and grossed out by the "a few more glances" comment, i sympathize with you. i'm not excusing the fact that he said it.

so... we're back to the fact that when i was discussing this, i was trying to discuss the morality of what he said, and whether those of us having the discussion were correct or incorrect in what he meant by what he said. and over and over, people responded with the "rich white middle aged texan man".

which, if you've made it this far, brings me to my ultimate point: i don't know how to tell you this, tumblr, but morality and correctness is not determined by privilege.

the most marginalized person in the room is not inherently the most moral person in the room, or the kindest. being gay or Black or disabled or poor doesn't make you a good person. being kind makes you a good person. and i guess this might be controversial on here, but sometimes privileged people are kind, and sometimes marginalized people are unkind assholes.

i was not defending jensen because he's white or a man, but because i think he's kind, and i think the people trashing him were both unkind and incorrect. i am not going to become so fucking brainrotted that i say "kill him" because the him in question is a white man who said one mildly upsetting thing, and i'm not gonna just go along with people who do.

i do not fucking like the way my dash turned so swiftly from kissing jensen's ass when they thought he was gonna say something gay to literally calling for him to be murdered because he said one dumb thing. the way people acted was unkind and cruel and undeserved, and i don't care how marginalized you are, if you are unkind and cruel for sport, i don't like you. you make fandom a terrible place.

i will defend anyone that i think is a kind, genuine person, and i will call out anyone who i think is an unkind asshole. i don't care if you're gay or trans or a person of color, if you're an unkind asshole, i'm not going to stand by you. your oppression is not an excuse for being a shitty ass person.

and before i end this post that DID turn into an essay despite my best efforts, there's one more thing i'd like to bring up that i found... interesting.

as soon as the dash starting going to hell over The Comment, i immediately saw people saying things like "well what do you expect from a straight man." and those people were the SAME people who have spent months making jokes about jensen being "[gunshots]" and gleefully partaking in my cockles masterlist. in other words, these people have spent nigh a year joking around and agreeing that jensen is a queer man.

but the moment he displeased them, he became a straight man again. as if being queer is only reserved for good people (you do know that queer men can be sexist, right?) and straight = bad. as though they were punishing a queer man by calling him straight.

and ultimately, i think my point is that you don't say "(straight) rich white middle-aged texan man" because you think those really are inherently bad things, because you were a fan of jensen five minutes ago. i think you say that so you have an excuse to be mean. just fucking nasty and unkind and violent and disgusting, really.

as long as he's all those things, there's no problem with saying that he should be shot in the head, right? because of course, it would be Wrong and Terrible to say that a poor disabled native lesbian should be shot in the head because she said something that upset you, right? and the difference would be because, uh... because being marginalized inherently makes you Good and being privileged inherently makes you Bad? so as long as the person in question was born under certain circumstances, it's totally cool and funny to make jokes wishing violent death upon them.

and, before anyone comes to tell me i'm a hypocrite, then, for saying rude things about jared, i'm going to explain, if i must, that the reason i hate jared is because he's not only a self-centered bigot, but because he thinks being cruel for sport is funny. do you get my point?

lastly, before i press post, i'm going to say this one more time: jensen absolutely did not hear that girl crying from backstage. i have been in a convention audience and not been able to clearly hear what a questioner said, because they are not mic'd as well as the person onstage. that is not an excuse, that's just a fact. some event coordinator told jensen to round up misha for the next thing on the schedule, jensen did not know what was currently going on, and he came out teasing in a way that would have been perfectly fine if the question was light-hearted, which they usually are. someone asking a question involving how to cope with the death of their abusive father is simply not what is typically happening at convention panels. he didn't. fucking. know.

at this point, i think that you guys actually just enjoy tearing people down and manipulating something into an excuse to be cruel. you view real, actual human people with feelings as toys to be played with, and when they don't dance the way you like, you throw a tantrum. and if that's what you want out of fandom, stop making any pretense of valuing kindness.

A study shows remote learning led to large losses in achievement for students during the pandemic, with blue states and students from low-income areas hit the hardest by the losses.

"Interestingly, gaps in math achievement by race and school poverty did not widen in school districts in states such as Texas and Florida and elsewhere that remained largely in-person," Thomas Kane, a professor of education at Harvard and one of the authors of the study, said of the study's results in an interview with the Harvard Gazette last week. "Where schools shifted to remote learning, gaps widened sharply. Shifting to remote instruction was like turning a switch on a critical piece of our social infrastructure that we had taken for granted."

WHITE HOUSE EYES INCOME CAP ON STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS, HAS NOT STUDIED HOW IT MAY IMPACT INFLATION

The study was conducted by Harvard University, the National Center for Analysis of Longitudinal Data in Education Research at the American Institutes for Research, and NWEA. The group analyzed data from 2.1 million students in 10,000 schools in 49 states, finding remote learning to be the primary cause for large losses of student achievement during the pandemic.

The researchers found that high-poverty schools were the most likely to spend more time in remote instruction, with high-poverty schools in some states outpacing others.

"In high remote instruction states (including populous states such as California, Illinois, New Jersey, Virginia, Washington and the District of Columbia), high-poverty schools spent an additional 9 weeks in remote instruction (more than 2 months) than low-poverty schools," the study reads, noting that high-poverty schools in states such as Texas and Florida had smaller gaps in remote instruction rates.

Teachers unions and school districts were often involved in contentious battles over remote learning throughout the pandemic, with Chicago's teachers union voting for a return to remote learning as recently as January.

While Chicago schools returned to in-person instruction shortly after, Kane noted that the higher rates of remote learning in some districts resulted in a large acheivement gap.

"We found that districts that spent more weeks in remote instruction lost more ground than districts that returned to in-person instruction sooner," Kane said.

Kane warned that the achievement losses threaten the gains the U.S. has made in closing the gap between minority and white students, which had been narrowing for three decades.

"The students in high-poverty schools that were remote for most of 2020-21 lost about 0.45 standard deviations in math," Kane said, noting that there are few options to help those students overcome the gap.

If the students that fell behind are not able to catch up, the losses could ultimately result in lower high school graduation rates, fewer students attending college, and lower lifetime earnings.

"To be more concrete, students in high-poverty schools that were remote for more than half of 2020-21 would be expected to see a 5 percent decline in average earnings over their career, given past relationships between test scores and earnings," Kane said. "That may not sound like much, but when calculating losses for all 50 million students in K-12 education in the U.S., it would amount to a $2 trillion decline in lifetime earnings."

Kane said the best solution is for districts to invest in interventions such as high-dosage tutoring for students that fell behind, but noted such intervention still might not be enough to close the gap.

"Pre-pandemic research implied that such a program would generate about 0.38 standard deviations," Kane said. "In other words, a district could provide a high-quality tutor to every single one of the students in a high-poverty school and still not expect to make up the decline."
