Nouvelle passionnante ! 🪨 Le professeur Jonathan O'Neil de l'@uOttawa et son équipe ont confirmé que le nord du Québec abrite les plus anciennes roches connues sur Terre, datant de 4,16 milliards d'années !

It’s really difficult to overstate how many pedagogical problems that seem impossible to solve are actually just a function of classes being too big.

The spookiest post this Halloween: there are as many univariant reactions in this P-T grid (8 components, 85 phases) as there are stars in the Milky Way: 100 billion

Universities: Why do our kids use AI to write their assignments 😭 😭 😭 don’t they know writing is important?
Also Universities: What if we made writing instructors into a permanent underclass of peasants that we work to the bone for as little money as possible?

Anytime you start a sentence with “However, the University is not the problem here” you’re wrong.
Missed the rest of mincup this year, but here just in time to vote for perovskite!
#MinCup24 R4M1: #Perovksite vs #Rhodochrosite
It’s the semifinals! Perovskite forms Borg-cubes and is namesake for an entire family of crystal structures, while pink Rhodochrosite is a mix of utility and charm, a manganese ore and decorative rock.

This tweet detailing the University of California’s new weapons wish list was disturbing, so I went down a small rabbit hole. These purchases are not necessarily in response to last year’s student protests but—perhaps more distressingly—this militarization push goes back years.🧵
The University of California just announced a list of military weaponry it wants in order to escalate its warfare on its students:
3000 rounds of pepper munitions
500 rounds of 40mm impact munitions
12 drones
9 grenade launchers
Read the full list here: regents.universityofcaliforn…

I have not heard this discussed much, but this point is spot on. Colleges and universities cannot sell themselves as bastions of environmental sustainability while also encouraging students and faculty to see ChatGPT as a learning tool they should integrate into their work.

Lunar observations aren’t just for astronauts. They’re for everyone.
On Saturday, Sept. 14, NASA is hosting International #ObserveTheMoon Night. You can join virtual or in-person events, or simply observe the Moon from your own backyard. go.nasa.gov/3TivtPo
ALT The Moon is seen from cameras onboard NASA's Orion spacecraft during the 20th day of the Artemis I mission. This image was taken after Orion executed the Return Trajectory Correction 3 burn to prepare it for the Return Powered Flyby maneuver, bringing it on its second close approach to the lunar surface and continuing the journey back to Earth. The right side of the image is dominated by the gray, cratered image of the Moon. The left side of the image is dominated by the white outer shell of the Orion capsule. The Moon and Orion stand out against the blackness of space. Credit: NASA

We regret to share the sad news of the passing of Associate Professor of Africana Sue Houchins, who died on August 18, 2024 at 80.
See President Garry W. Jenkins' full letter to the community on Houchins' life and legacy: bates.edu/news/2024/08/20/su…

Technically adding more students to your section of 101 is a fire hazard, but only if they all show up on the same day.
