My TA orientation suggests to start classes with loud noises or flashing lights to get students' attention.

For the sake of those students, please don't. It's stressful or worse for those of us with neuro disorders, anxiety/PTSD, autism, and more.

Academic bullying is a major problem. After reporting my own abuse to the dean in my first grad program 8y ago, my bully was promoted and I was pushed to leave. I left science for years; my career is only now recovering. I am not alone. Neither are you.

We are still receiving letters postmarked the first week of January. We waited nearly 2 months for a replacement credit card to arrive. We drive our rent check across the city because it's not possible to guarantee mail arrival. What's your #USPS nightmare?

This kid is my new hero for coming up with "Newsy Things Considered". @petersagal better watch out or next we will have "Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me Unless It's About Dinosaurs!"
