Most public comments get ignored — not because boards don't care, but because most people don't know how to structure what they say.
I made a free checklist on how to give public comment that gets heard.
"It's better for them to register and find out they didn't need accommodations than it is to find out the hard way that they do."

“...no matter what the rationale for reducing the number of problems is—doing so and grading the student on the basis of that reduced work, as though they’d completed the whole assignment, is modifying the performance expectations for that student.” Read more on Substack.
Featured post is "Disability Accommodations vs Modifications: A College Transition Reality Check." A page of algebra formulae to solve, with 3 crossed out. A sharpened blue pencil lays across the problems.
Modifications that reduce the amount or kind of work students w/disabilities do may leave them less-prepared for college, since colleges don't have make such changes. Kelley Challen & I explain why terminology used in K12 can be fuzzy and lead to unrealistic expectations: https://bit.ly/LDAdSS18

I forget the golden rule that no good people go on housewives shows.
Just remember – editing can go both ways, as my sister always reminds me. 👆Then again, I'm very bad at picking someone to root for; I always forget they're all terrible people and whoever I choose will eventually prove herself a monster. 😑
Right? (See Juliet in previous iteration having somebody just take pictures of her in her own clothes in an attempt to be an influencer.) Clearly Myka's husband pays for a well connected publicist; how else is she getting on the today show. 🤨

Middle-aged white woman with shoulder length brown hair looks annoyed when somebody says "is it a porn film?"
Myka is giving me Juliet vibes (derogatory). Also, when she said she trained under somebody in the Queen's staff, I thought...
Wait which one is real housewives? I am not getting another streaming service. 🙄
Middle aged white Women woman with long brown hair looks annoyed as somebody says "is it a porn film?"
I'm going in. But I really want this show to just be British people featured, not Americans. We already have housewives here

“If a professor’s handwriting is illegible, it’s not just a problem for students with a disability—but for all students who take this professor’s class—and my colleagues didn’t feel this created a need for a disability accommodation.” Read more on Substack.
Read on Substack - "Disability accommodation for a professor's lousy handwriting/use of cursive? Do colleges do this?
Students with disabilities may encounter difficulties at college and wonder what their college's obligations are. For instance, when they can't read a professor's writing, does the college have to provide an accommodation? Read my answer: https://bit.ly/LDAdSS9
At @bookshop.org, you can do a search for a Black-owned bookstore and direct your purchases to the one you choose! I chose Ida's Bookshop in the great Garden State! bookshop.org/pages/bookst...?
I hear you. 😑 Did I miss your thoughts on #RHOP reunion final installment? Anyone else think Karen's dentures were slipping? And Kearna repeating her lame dig when no one heard it the first time?
Anthropic made the right call here, but did you know they are paying out a class action lawsuit they lost for ingesting millions of books without paying for them (to train their LLM)? Interestingly, Google doesn't show news hits on this 🤨 From the Authors Guild: authorsguild.org/news/mixed-d...
