I want to encourage folks to think about how vigor can go alongside rigor.

We really feel healed. We really feel like our suffering does not have to define us anymore.
-Eileen Camfield
Joy is a renewable resource because it does not get depleted.
-Eileen Camfield
Jamie Moore shares about embracing anger to find joyful agency on episode 565 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
I was told that that if I showed emotion I would be seen as vulnerable, and my students would be ready to pounce on that vulnerability.

John Warner shares about his latest book, More Than Words: How to Think About Writing in the Age of AI on episode 564 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
If we treat the output of large language models as writing, as opposed to syntax generation, which is how I characterize it, then we're allowing the meaning of writing and the experience of writing to be degraded for humans.
-John Warner
Clearly, this is not feedback that is unique to human beings and unique to how we read.
-John Warner
There is no pivot for humanity. We're going to be humans whether we like it or not, and we are going to live our life through a series of experiences which convey some manner of meaning to ourselves. We still have to live. We still have to have a day to day experience of the world. We still have to have access to our own minds. We still have to relate to other people. This is the stuff of being human.
-John Warner
Every human is a unique intelligence. Developing a unique intelligence is a work of teaching and learning. And honoring that is the highest calling of a teacher.
-John Warner
Dr. Sunita Sah discusses her book, Defy: The Power of Saying No in a World That Demands Yes on episode 563 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

-Dr. Sunita Sah
Defiance is a skill that's available and necessary for all of us to use.
-Dr. Sunita Sah
For many of us, the distance between who we think we are and what we actually do is enormous.
-Dr. Sunita Sah
To defy is simply to act in accordance with your true values when there's pressure to do otherwise.
-Dr. Sunita Sah
Jesús Campos shares his story as an undocumented undergrad/grad student and ways to support others in their educational pursuits on episode 562 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
There is some guilt students have because they feel like they’re not really pulling their weight, or they’re sort of a burden because they’re not producing an income.
-Jesús Campos
Look at scholarships that are open to nonresidents. They're out there.
-Jesús Campos
It’s very important not to put yourself and your own experiences in your student’s shoes. Every student is unique and going through something entirely different.
-Jesús Campos
Individuals from different countries go through different processes. It is not a one size fits all.
-Jesús Campos
Students are each special and unique, and it is important we get to know them as such.
-Jesús Campos
