You can say Substack should host Nazis, but don't pretend there's some "free speech" principle to it. Substack has a strict ban on pornography. Welcoming Nazis while banning sex workers isn't a principled stand, it's a choice, an expression that you like the former and dislike the latter.

A quick visit during my social media hiatus to say HELLO FRIENDS, and yes, I started a Substack while I was away. It will be a place dedicated to my love of learning (and teaching) and will include a weekly newsletter, courses, and community. Give my first post a read if you get a minute, and if you'd be so kind as to share, I'd so appreciate it. Hope you are well.

@ethanwhite I can only speak to law. But yes definite cycle for TT/ tenured faculty hiring. Visitors & adjuncts are more ad hoc.

It's important to clarify in class.

#LegalEthics Tidbit: How many online CLE’s can I attend at the same time?

Just one. A Maine lawyer on administrative suspension needed two CLE classes to reinstate his license. He logged on to two live CLE’s at the same time using his computer and iPad, and then told the ME authorities he had completed the required classes. Suspended one year.

@tiffanycli I analogized to disclosing it was a class assignment with Professor feedback & that her classmates could disclose & it could reflect poorly if she didn’t. But I have no idea how law firms are viewing chat gpt in writing samples. It’s a changing environment!

@tiffanycli I had an interesting q from a student. Her legal writing professor had the class uses Chat GPT for spelling, grammar & editing help. She is now turning the memo into a writing sample. Should she disclose use of Chat GPT? I said yes but am curious how employers will react.

#LegalEthics Tidbit: If your client wants to leave you money in the will you are drafting, tell them to get another lawyer

A MA lawyer prepared a will for a friend that identified the lawyer’s son as a successor beneficiary in case the client’s family predeceased him. The lawyer violated Rule 1.8(c) by preparing a trust instrument that potentially provided a substantial gift to his own family. Public Reprimand.

@design_law Depends on what you like, but I love Before Sunrise, Before Sunset & Before Midnight.

@design_law makes sense. Have you seen the cranberry harvest? It’s very cool to go watch if you can time it right.

@design_law to harvest the cranberries? Or to serve them?

@design_law and check it again tomorrow to confirm you DO have class. 🤣

Glad to see this in print! “ChatGPT Assignments to Use in Your Classroom Today” from a team at the UCF Faculty Center led by Kevin Yee… I had the chance to read a preprint and it’s full of interesting ideas for learning about and using generative AI in teaching.

@schendel So happy to see you here! I’ve always enjoyed your posts!

@IcooIey Try Alex the Cider Donut Guy’s map! It’s a gem of places to visit. He’s on Insta @ ciderdonuteur

[Updated Sep 9]

Callan is been found and is back with her family. I have no other details. Thanks everyone.

An update to yesterday's post. A flyer has been created, with the contact number for the Babson Police. If anyone has seen Callan, please contact them. #boston #newengland #missingperson @universalhub

@ynwalfc thank you! Do you think this myth comes from past history (say 1970s -1980s) where more cases involved stay at home moms?

@alysondecker Thank you, good one! And we’ll be covering Marvin.

I’m prepping #familylaw for spring. What are some family law myths - things people think are true but are not in fact the law? I’m thinking common law marriage; minority rule, so living together even for 20 years does not create a marriage in most states. Others?

POLITICAL VIEWS

We’re not supposed to reject people socially, because of political views, is what I understand from our nation’s great newspapers and magazines and newsfortainment television programs.

It’s a gnostic idea of politics that these professional mourners of crumbling civility seem to be popularizing; the idea that what you believe politically is something entirely separate from the self, and the "real" world of backyard barbecues and college mixers.
