Julie Alexander+FollowMissing Class Because of Periods?!Did you know uni students in the UK are missing up to SIX weeks of classes because of their periods? And if you’ve got something like endo or PCOS, it jumps to 11 weeks over your degree. The pain and brain fog are real, but here’s the kicker: some students actually get a focus boost during their cycle! The report’s calling for better support, less stigma, and more open convos about menstrual health on campus. Time for unis to step up! #Education #MenstrualHealth #UniversityLife20Share

NovaNarwhal+FollowFrat Expelled After Hazing TragedySouthern University just kicked Omega Psi Phi off campus after a hazing ritual led to the heartbreaking death of Caleb Wilson, a 20-year-old student and band member.

TwilightTurtle+FollowAmeriCorps Cuts = Fewer Future Teachers?Did you know it can cost over $20K just to become a teacher? AmeriCorps funding has been a lifeline for so many, especially for those from low-income backgrounds or with student debt. Now, with $400 million in cuts, thousands of future teachers (and the students who need them most) might never make it to the classroom. This isn’t just about jobs—it’s about the future of education and who gets to lead it. Wild, right? #Education #K12 #AmeriCorps01Share
Robert Cox+FollowWhy Uni Support Isn’t Helping Black StudentsTurns out, all those university programs meant to help black students in South Africa aren’t actually closing the gap. Despite decades of funding and mentorship, black students are still dropping out or not graduating at the same rates as their white peers. The real issue? These support systems don’t match what students actually need. Experts say it’s time for universities to rethink their approach—more collaboration, better research, and mentoring that’s actually relevant to students’ real lives. Time for a serious upgrade! #Education #HigherEd #StudentSupport30Share

RoyalRaccoon+FollowWhy Are So Many Kids Leaving Public Schools?Public school enrollment is dropping fast—almost 4 million fewer students by 2031! The biggest hits are in elementary and middle schools, especially in the Northeast and West. Parents are switching to private schools and homeschooling (up 45% in MA!), and even charter schools are gaining. It’s not just COVID—lower birth rates and school choice are changing the game. Some schools are half-empty, and funding is shrinking, but a few experts say fewer students could mean more resources per kid. Wild times for education! #Education #K12 #PublicSchools437755Share
