Who Can Apply: Many Vietnamese Americans face unique challenges shaped by economic hardship, familial responsibility, and cultural expectations. As the generation of Vietnamese refugees who sacrificed everything for the hope of freedom begins to pass on, it is more important than ever to preserve the culture, history, and values they held dear. Their legacy lives on in the stories, traditions, and aspirations of their children and grandchildren. This scholarship aims to honor those sacrifices by empowering Vietnamese-American students to carry forward their heritage with pride — preserving the identity, values, and spirit of a people who refused to let freedom…

L&D Strategies That Last Beyond The Training Event In the first part of this series, Microlearning: A Must-Have In Hybrid Work, [1] we looked at how small, focused lessons support employees in fast-paced, distributed environments. In the second part, Gamification: Bridging The Gap Between Learning And Practice, [2] we explored how game elements can turn engagement into real-world application. In the third part, Learning In The Flow Of Work: Practical Tips For L&D, [3] we examined how learning becomes truly effective when it aligns with daily routines. Now, in this final article, we bring it all together and ask a…

Under repeated threats to their funding, higher ed institutions began to rebrand or shut down cultural centers, Black student resource centers and LGBTQ+ and women’s programs. Many campus diversity officers lost their jobs or were shuffled off to other offices, barred from doing much of the work they were hired for. Some institutions scrapped celebrated traditions such as affinity graduations and campus residential communities geared toward students of certain racial or ethnic backgrounds. Some student groups, like Esperanza, lost university funding because of their identity-based missions. In one recent example, the University of Alabama ended two student publications, one focused…

Sign up for The 74 Newsletter Thanksgiving was still on the horizon when 7-year-old Reagan Fletcher handed her mom, Kael, a Christmas list to send to the North Pole. Scribbled in green marker, Reagan’s list already began with selfless requests: for her best friend to move back and a classmate to recover from a broken wrist. Then, the usuals: an iPad and boots. But her last wish was for Santa to keep her school open.  This fall, she and the community of Prescott, Washington, learned their school was in danger of…

We’ve been thinking about the collective efforts of the community and utilizing the collective brilliance as a valuable resource and how it can support learners and families. I’m Victoria Andrews, and today I’m joined by Dr. William Jackson, the founder of the Village of Wisdom, a nonprofit organization that uses collective Black parent power to ensure that education decisions about Black learners support their consistent exposure to culturally affirming learning environments. In our conversation, we dive into how collective parent advocacy, affirmation, and culturally responsive teaching practices are reshaping education for all learners. Outline How are you doing today, William?…

Herald Staff, The Brown Daily Herald Two are dead. An additional nine victims have been hospitalized. The incident occurred between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. on Saturday.

Over the decades, Tom Jones has per­formed with the best of them. In 1969, we can find him singing “Long Time Gone” with Cros­by, Stills, Nash & Young, and tak­ing them delight­ful­ly by sur­prise. The same goes for his duet with Janis Joplin in that same year. Now fast for­ward to the 1990s. In this decade, Jones teamed up with the Swedish rock band The Cardi­gans and per­formed a rol­lick­ing ver­sion of the Talk­ing Heads “Burn­ing Down the House.” And, rather unex­pect­ed­ly, he would get paired with Pink Floy­d’s David Gilmour and croon Prince’s “Pur­ple Rain.” The record­ing above comes from…

Most of the colleges with the largest graduate programs in the country don’t have clear plans for how they’ll deal with new loan caps, set to kick in next July. And if they do, they aren’t taking publicly about it. For years, students could borrow essentially unlimited funds to pay for graduate education, thanks to a program known as Grad PLUS that capped loans at the cost of attendance. Republicans in Congress and other critics have argued that colleges took advantage of this program and raised their prices, fueling the student debt crisis. Loans for grad students make up nearly…

Dive Brief: The U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against Minneapolis Public Schools on Tuesday for its teacher union agreement, which the department alleges racially discriminates because of its diversity efforts, including those aimed at recruiting and retaining Black men.  The lawsuit challenges the bargaining agreement’s “Anti-Bias Anti-Racist Staff Development and Advisory Council,” which is a district-wide initiative to support educators of color. The contract also requires that the district involuntarily reassigns or lays off teachers based on seniority unless a…
