Stella Carlson said that before the shooting, the man was helping vehicle traffic get around the area where ICE agents and observers had started to gather.
"The gentleman I was standing next to was focused on helping people who were coming into Nicollet Avenue understand that they needed to take it slow and helping them get through. The ICE agents approached us, told us to back up, back up. I'm not even sure why we were helping them, if anything. And I got on the snow bank, and next thing I knew, they shot him," Carlson said.

The pain was on the outside of the elbow and sometimes extended to my hand. I wore KT tape for a month that a friend who’s an occupational therapist showed me how to apply. I’d recommend seeing someone if yours has lasted that long though.

“It teaches us to respect matter, memory and history. Archaeologists do not throw things away, they preserve them. They do not consume, but contemplate. They do not destroy, but decipher”

“Archaeology, on the other hand, teaches us that even the smallest piece of evidence deserves attention, that every detail has value and that nothing can be discarded. In this sense, archaeology is a school of cultural sustainability and spiritual ecology.”

These were people already approved to be naturalized, yet they were stopped solely because of their countries of origin. MAGA keeps saying, “If they wanted to be in this country, they should have done it the right way.” Well, they did. And the administration still blocked them. Cruelty is the point.

Apparently you can destroy a historic structure without the will of the people. Interesting that there’s money for this and not the government.

More UChicago Ph.D. Programs Will Pause Admissions The arts and humanities dean said “nearly all” faculty leaders preferred “a broader pause for the division.” Some social sciences programs also aren’t accepting new students.

No, we’d prefer to accept PhD applicants for 2026, but the previously lucky departments have joined with the unlucky in solidarity. Awesome colleagues! www.insidehighered.com/news/admissi...
