It isn't true that facts never change minds. They just don't change minds that are already made up. If you see your ideas as identities to defend, you twist and resist data to rationalize your views. If you treat ideas as hunches to test, you embrace data to update your views.

Why social media becomes a cesspool: (1) Self-selection: frequent commenters are more political, more polarized, and more toxic than the population. (2) Contagion: incivility attracts more likes, and when even 2 comments normalize toxicity, others jump on the bandwagon.

UNR's @AmyPason made many excellent points, but I'll highlight this one: "What the sponsors of SB287 overlook is that “land grant” is not just a name or a brand, it signifies the actual programming offered at the institution." It's a mission not a title.

#SB287 is a distraction from real issues in #highered. Namely we need to have #NVLeg stop cutting our budget. But, I'm an educator, so hoping some actual facts make it into decision making about Land Grants.

@UNRExtension does amazing things in partnership with all counties: thenevadaindependent.com/art… Why would #NVLeg want to change a good thing with #SB287?

There’s no question that Nevada’s lawmakers are facing difficult decisions regarding how to shape a state budget in the wake of a global pandemic.
