What a year it has been: Reflection on the season, the year, and what's to come

Dr. London and Dr. Ross reflect on the season including our favorites and insights followed by some words of encouragement for our fellow scholars impacted by the change in priorities of the nation and subsequent grant terminations. We acknowledge the work of scholars who may feel devalued in this changing times, we call for the generational fight for academic freedom, and announce a change in the season to come.

As scholars who have received terminations in recent weeks, we offer below some resources. 

National Science Foundation PAPPG Informal resolution of award adminstration disputes

Code of Federal Regulations Termination and standard closeout costs

Center for the Defense of Academic Freedom Action Report #6

Action Plan & Appeal for Illegal NSF Grant terminations

Updates on NSF priorities

Bridge funding opportunities: Rapid Response Bridge Funding Program 

We'd also like to acknowledge the tireless, thankless, and often cruel work that our colleagues at federal agencies are enduring. We see you too.
