There’s been a lot of talk about grade inflation lately. ButI guess NYC didn’t get the memo when grading energy efficiency in buildings!

Terrific piece by @jasonfurman on grade deflation at Harvard: nytimes.com/2026/05/21/opini… For faculty/universities it's tricky — we want students to focus on learning and take risks, yet grades provide motivation and feedback. No perfect solution. Curious to see impact, response.

New in @PLOSONE w/ @VolhaCharnysh, J Kalow & E Walk: How do race, nationality & partisanship shape U.S. support for climate disaster aid?
Two svy expt (N=7,511): Americans give less to Global South victims, esp. Republicans. Race effects context-dependent.

I received lots of great feedback, thx friends, and others. A minute after publication, a groundskeeper wrote to say I'd probably never been to the open because flags are prohibited! Well, I have been. But admit, I may have been remembering images from other tennis tournaments!

A few others wrote to say that even as Americans, they were rooting for non-Americans, including Joker to win 25 or for Alcaraz or Sinner. So far, no one writing to say they prefer Sabalenka or Swiatek.

Very happy to share that our study of dignity appeals is now out at @PSRMJournal
3 Jul 2025
🧠Can dignity appeals boost engagement with marginalized groups?
➡️P. Bollen, W. Kymlicka, @evlieb & B. Read show that Facebook ads using dignity language spark positive reactions, but only when targets are not seen as “blameworthy” cambridge.org/core/journals/… #FirstView
