I have spent a lot of time in school. I still do. I am grateful I get to immerse myself within higher education. I am thrilled and in awe of watching our girls explore their world, develop their own ideas and conclusions, and begin to understand justice and fairness when evaluating the realities of the world.
The primary thing that i am thankful for is that I get to learn and teach every day. Evidence and accuracy and sound logic is something I value and expect from myself, my students, and especially from those people who are making decisions that affect all of us.
So, when there is a march and rally in our state capital for SCIENCE, of course we attend and bring our kids. Hearing our local Nobel laureate speak, seeing how our policy makers respond, and being part of such a positive display of community activism provides far more learning than we can provide to our girls in a classroom. I hope they forever remain the natural scientists and critical consumera of information they are today.
I also hope we as a population become more critical and transcend this era of biased information and news. In terms of my job, i hope our policy makers prioritize funding for research. And, of course, I will do whatever I can to protect the earth and environment that we call home. These are the reasons why we participated in the March for Science with our friends, neighbors, and coworkers.
