Today the News Cycle focuses on responding to rhetoric from the Trump Administration about undocumented students and federal funding of education. A few weeks ago, we took a look at how the Trump Administration's economic plans will affect Davis residents. Now, students are worried about how they’ll be treated in the event of budget cuts or threats to their identity. We spoke with Matt Best, the superintendent of Davis Joint Unified School District, about a recent Op-ed he released that focused on the concerns of students and parents. Then, Elina Hibel covers budget cut concerns, and Rowan Reising gets a read on how students are feeling.

Kindness in healthcare, like in other settings, is contagious. It spreads through social networks and can trigger a chain reaction where people feel the need to pay it forward, a phenomenon called prosocial contagion. Initiatives to promote kindness in healthcare improve clinical care and patient outcomes, and reduce stress and burnout among healthcare staff. Kris Vanhaecht tells us about the Mangomoments initiative in Belgium that demonstrated the ripple effects of small unexpected acts of kindness in clinical settings on patients and healthcare workers.

The first Earth Day was held on April 22, 1970. Initially devised as a national teach-in on the effects of 150 years of unfettered industrial development, Earth Day helped to galvanize the nascient environmental movement and was a catalyst for a decade of progress in regulating pollution that included the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency, the passage of the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts and the Occupational Safety and Health Act. As we face the nihilistic rollback of the 55 years of environmental progress made since the first Earth Day and the darkening spectre of human-induced accelerated climate change, our Earth Day 2025 themed playlist includes music from Common, Justin Townes Earle, Stevie Wonder and John Legend, Vermillion Lies, Bo Diddley, Anthony da Rosa and more! |
