I'm super excited to announce this grant my colleagues and I earned to help improve the culture of inclusive teaching on our campus. UR is an amazing place and our students and the faculty I work with keep making it better!

Looking for some spooky science stories for Halloween? My colleague Jennifer O'Donnell made this great video about mating behavior in spiders and it has some great footage of the live UR mascots in her care. #URichmond #SpiderPride #URBiology

Dr. Cornel West on talking to people with very different opinions, like his friend, Dr. George: “Reveling in each other’s humanity and finding joy.” #URSharp
I look forward to listening to Harvard University Dr. Cornel West and his friend & former colleague, Dr. Robert George, Princeton University, discuss the importance of fostering dialogue and cultivating friendships across ideological and political divides. #URsharp

While I'm normally proud of @urichmond, I am so mad at the Board's decision to keep the names of slave holders and segregationist on our buildings. It's PAST time to listen to these students!
“We just can’t keep talking about the same things and seeing nothing happen.” Black students say the University of Richmond isn't prioritizing their well-being and demand real change, reports @BrandonShilli14.

@ClausWilke That is great @ClausWilke. My colleague @KGrayson_UR and I are teaching a Data Viz class for Bio majors and are using your book (and R for part of the class). The book is great... now I'm wishing we pushed this class back a semester and borrowed more of your materials! 😄

I can think of several conversations with people reluctant to accept that white privilege is a real thing because they had other disadvantages. I think this is a great distinction to help in those discussions. Thanks for sharing your ideas @IjeomaOluo
