What happens when a doctor who has cared for Boston's homeless population for 40 years in "blessed obscurity" gets the bestseller treatment from Tracy Kidder? I wrote about Dr. Jim O'Connell for this year's Globe Magazine "Bostonians of the Year" issue. bostonglobe.com/2023/12/12/mag…

Requests from homeless people? Here's some advice from Dr. Jim O'Connell's 40 years: Make eye contact, treating them like the fellow human beings they are. Consider handing them a Dunkin’ gift card for $5, so they can get a coffee and access to a restroom. bostonglobe.com/2023/12/12/mag…

Another master class from hall-of-fame former Globe editor Tom Mulvoy.

Great opp to work with all-star Veronica Chao and her talented team.

A treat for Lovely Ann Silvio and me to welcome friends Adrian Walker and Evan Allen to Brandeis University to discuss the brilliant The Boston Globe narrative series and podcast reexamining the Stuart case 3 decades later. Great questions from our Brandeis Journalism students. Photos by Khimaya Bagla.

So great working with you on this, Adriana Lacy. Thanks for all the terrific work and insights, Matt Shearer. Our Brandeis University students loved hearing from you.

Fascinating and funny discussion last night about reinventing journalism with innovative Matt Shearer. Great to team up with my Brandeis University colleague Adriana Lacy and our bright Brandeis Journalism students (including our photographer Khimaya Bagla).

A great partnership! Brandeis Journalism Brookline.News

Love working with, and learning from, these friends. The all-star Alray Scholars Program board at our annual strategy retreat.

The The Chronicle of Higher Education has a story today about how colleges will, as of July 1, no longer be able to hold student transcripts hostage. Hallelujah. First exposed this troubling higher-ed practice in this Globe Magazine piece 8 years ago (and then on CSPAN). bostonglobe.com/magazine/2016/…

My once-a-decade take on Mitt and his mutt...

"The pricing structure in #HigherEd is no longer sustainable." 📈 In the new book edited by our senior advisor @StephenBurd2, journalist Neil Swidey charts the rise of both the enrollment management industry and the metrics-focused forces of college rankings like U.S. News & World Report.

The latest story from our collaboration with Brandeis U and Neil Swidey is an emotional profile about a Brookline woman who, spurred by her mother's cancer diagnosis, set off to learn more about her heritage and turned that quest into civic leadership. brookline.news/for-felina-sil…

More evidence that fake news spreads faster. My clever student Lulu asked me to pretend on camera to be annoyed when she brought her adorable hedgehog to class on Election Day. 3 million views later...tiktok.com/@daisy.thehedg…
