The last thing Nevada System of Higher Education needs is to take advice from someone who advised Florida, N. Carolina and TX #HigherEd. Faculty leave those states in droves. Let’s not make retention worse here in NV!
Thank you @NvFacAlliance members for your public comment at today’s Nevada System of Higher Education Board of Regents meeting!
In a change of norms, Regent Goodman doing public comment, telling faculty their advocacy should be to oppose taking BOR out of constitution. Recognizes presentation from conservative group, but we should still listen. Nevada System of Higher Education
We certainly are supportive of the Regents getting educated on governance. Why not contact American Association of University Professors who literally have a book on it? Nevada System of Higher Education
If you want to know what shared governance looks like, University of Nevada, Reno is hosting a campus conversation on the budget. Leadership there, moderated by Faculty Senate. Accommodations for all to speak and contribute! Nevada System of Higher Education
Faculty Senate chair University of Nevada, Reno doing awesome fostering dialogue in this Campus Conversation on budget. #SharedGovernance #HigherEd Nevada System of Higher Education
#NVLeg presented Nevada System of Higher Education with a great math problem. How much can you raise fees and not lose enrollment? How much can you lower COLA and not lose faculty? How much can we cut faculty positions (and programs) without losing students AND faculty?
I can’t say enough about the research and care Nevada Independent reporters do covering stories that matter. Jacob Solis coverage of #highered will be missed!
Doing democracy here University of Nevada, Reno at the Wolfpack Community Howl! Deliberating how we get the political system we want
Thank you Kenny Guinn Center for Policy Priorities for joining the Community Howl deliberative discussion University of Nevada, Reno #CommunicationStudies
Attacks on Trump, Biden's, mental acuity loom over presidential debate - Los Angeles Times. Excited to be quoted on campaigns #TeamRhetoric University of Nevada, Reno latimes.com/politics/story…
Had a really great conversation with Ben Margiott on his podcast. Excited to analyze this year’s election with the Dignity Index in collaboration with Kenny Guinn Center for Policy Priorities
We have many choices when we persuade in campaigns. The goal of the Dignity Index is really to make us aware of those choices and whether we really have to resort to creating villains to win elections #Rhetoric University of Nevada, Reno Kenny Guinn Center for Policy Priorities
