    Let's play a game! It's called: "Breitbart headline or KKK newspaper from the 1920s" Obviously identifying words changed. Good luck!

    “These are sobering findings.”

    I forced a bot to read over 1,000 releases and then asked it to write a FOIA release of its own. Here's the first page. (The rest are completely redacted)

    My husband was an English major & has been a pediatrician for the past 20 years. A great deal of medicine is evaluating evidence & telling a convincing story. Thanks for spreading the word on majors!

    If you can read serious scholarly work and respond to that work effectively AND have the core basic science in hand, you’ll be well prepared for med school. And yes, history majors can handle that very well.

    Yesterday, I told a colleague in physical science (who teaches a lot of pre-meds) that History majors have a higher acceptance rate to Med School than science majors and he didn't believe me until I showed him the data:

    Not taking any classes in the history department is my greatest academic regret from undergrad.

    Hey, colleges! Hire more historians of medicine!* [*by which I mean me specifically... thanks]

    As a writing teacher on a health sciences campus, this can't be stated strongly enough. Humanities majors can bring a lot to the sciences.

    This past year, fully 50% of Humanities majors who applied to med schools matriculated, compared with 48.2% of math majors, 45.6% of physical science majors, 41.3% of social science majors, and 40.9% biological science majors.

    History studies as a pathway to Med School...who knew?

    Thread (going viral among historians for obvious reasons). Liberal arts for the win!

    If your scholarly passion and aptitude is in field X and you want to go to med school, major on field X!

    Bottom line: History (and humanities generally) is a great preparation for medical school and DEFINITELY not an impediment to admission--if anything it's an asset, all other things being equal--and faculty should advise students based on data!

    My 5-yr-old client can’t tell me what country she is from. We prepare her case by drawing pictures with crayons of the gang members that would wait outside her school. Sometimes she wants to draw ice cream cones and hearts instead. She is in deportation proceedings alone.

    Yes! Here’s more on that topic, with a quote from a student who was an English major.

    Somehow it’s the dominant majority that worries about “social trust” and everybody else is just trying to live their lives. If you want to promote social trust, advocate trusting everyone in our polity, as you should.

    Multiculturalism (whatever that is) doesn’t reject a unifying culture. It’s literally what we live every day in the US. But a “unifying” culture that seeks to suppress the identities & legitimacy of a third of its population pushes racism from the start.

    “Veprek instead makes a case against multiculturalism in his comments. "What's the evidence for such 'complementarity?' Some commentators assert that a unifying culture (as opposed to multiculturalism) is the best way to promote social trust and combat racism."”

    “"The drafters say 'populism and nationalism' as if these are dirty words," wrote Andrew Veprek, the deputy assistant secretary for refugees and migration, in documents obtained exclusively by CNN.” Yeah, well, read a history book.

    American racism & ethno-nationalism have a unique form (that‘s returned in an awful way). But the ideas dismissed here destroyed Europe in the early 20th century. There are no principles abstracted from context. Populism, xenophobia, & racism killed tens of millions.

    Just don’t tell your patients your specialty is the Black Death.

    Make sure you tell your students this, especially freshmen/women still deciding on major. A student who can handle the complexity of the genetics, demographics, archaeology, religious responses, & cultural reactions to = 1 helluva competent physician!

    My brother the ophthalmologist studied classics and speaks six languages. He’s about to start one of the top fellowships in his field.

    My cousin-in-law is a wonderful physician specializing in family medicine. She got her undergraduate degree in women's and gender studies. She is very, very good at her job.
