Somebody please explain why signs like these would ever be necessary on a community college campus.

Seriously, were these kids raised by wolves?

18-year-old took her college savings and bought the restaurant where she was a dishwasher

I'm seriously rethinking federal student aid. Maybe I should pinch my pennies and pay for my community college classes out-of-pocket. I'm not sure if carrying that debt for the rest of my life would be worth it.

I had written a long post about that, but then Moshidon suddenly closed, and my unsaved post just disappeared. That's happened quite a few times. Not sure if it's the fault of the app, or the Android phone. Or perhaps something else entirely. 🤔

Ballots have been mailed in Contra Costa County!

While many of us have been watching the Governor's race, there are other important issues on the ballot.

One insightful resource is the League of Women Voters. While the League does not endorse parties or candidates, they do analyze ballot measures that pertain to their principles.

"LWV California and LWV Diablo Valley support California’s Community College System."
"LWV Diablo Valley supports funding for local public schools and endorses the following Measures from Lafayette, Moraga and Walnut Creek School Districts. "

#CommunityCollege Symposium at Stanford today. Students applied from the entire state of CA.

A lot of great research was presented, including one student who should definitely file for a patent. I'm very proud of my advisee, the students from #LasPositasCollege, and all of the students doing quality research at Community and Junior colleges.

Some of my favorites talks:
* informatics on native bees
* logistical analysis of high speed rail in Vietnam
* cheap and effective methods of detecting UTIs in people with alzheimers/dementia
