What if in an AU, Taiga and Ami swapped personalities. Where Taiga’s the bratty model and Ami’s the hot headed one picking up her slack while trying to hide the fact that she’s crushing on her.

Chapter XXIII: “Unleashing Haran, Part V” from Beneath the Armor, Volume I
Excerpt: "Her lightsaber is a blur, even to Talia. The Force spews from her like a blizzard, coming out of her, and towards her, in every direction. Amidst Passh’s labored breathing and their weapons clashing, her lips curl into a pleased smile. She senses that the slaver is tiring; his swings are becoming desperate while she feels as if she can continue fighting until the next sundown. Her movements are sharp like sleet, numerous and deadly. Like the wisp of a winter wind, her lightsaber skims along Passh’s arms and thighs, and the smell of burnt fabric and skin waft in the air. The slaver hisses at the small wounds."

Promises, Promises: Affordable College in Pittsburgh and Across Pennsylvania
Promises, Promises: Affordable College in Pittsburgh and Across Pennsylvania
“Why not free college?”
Sen. Vincent J. Hughes asked this repeatedly when he introduced the Pennsylvania Promise to Pennsylvania’s state legislature earlier this year. If passed, the legislation — introduced as Senate Bill 1111 and House Bill 2444 — would cover college costs for many Pennsylvania residents.
“I’ve heard from far too many college students who are struggling to make ends meet,” said…

The Future of PASSHE
Consolidation for six Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education universities is coming closer day by day, with consolidated universities welcoming students as early as Fall of 2022. While consolidation of the selected universities is supposed to benefit the universities and put the PASSHE system on the right track, the impact of consolidation on morale, faculty, and retirements has proven otherwise. With consolidation less than a year away, I fear the future of PASSHE is looking bleak.
Two years ago, PASSHE universities were wrapping up a regular semester, not knowing that their future contained a pandemic full of zoom, hybrid classes, and a whole new teaching environment. Now, professors are still juggling the challenges of teaching during a pandemic while experiencing concern about how university consolidation will impact their futures. Dr. Chris Hallen, the vice president of APSCUF, shared his personal experience as a professor at Bloomsburg, one of the soon-to-be consolidated universities, during the December 1st Board of Governor's Meeting stating, "My colleagues and I wonder if we are doomed to a lifetime of overload, as retired (or retrenched) faculty are not being replaced, and somehow it makes more sense to pay me over twice what they could pay an adjunct for the same course, "My colleagues and I are wondering whether we are next — next to be retrenched as our department’s enrollments drop below a magical, moving-number target." This insight from Hallen exemplifies what it is like to be a professor on a PASSHE campus on the road to consolidation. Professors are not only experiencing uncertainty about the future but worry that their careers are on the line, all while taking on a larger workload to make up for the decreasing faculty numbers at their universities. With falling morale on campus, PASSHE should evaluate if the steps they are taking on the path to consolidation benefit those it affects or only the system's finances, which can also be questioned- but that is a whole extra blog.
In addition to low morale, retirement is on the rise for faculty members at PASSHE universities, and it appears that consolidation could be partly to blame. In the most recent round of retirement incentives offered to PASSHE employees, almost half of the 165 who signed up were from consolidating universities. By accepting the incentive, the participants will retire by the summer of 2022. The retirement incentive itself is a part of State System Chancellor Greenstein's goal to reduce PASSHE's workforce to 2010-11 levels. Knowing that this effort is in place, faculty may be more willing to retire, not knowing what their future could look like in the system. While the effort is to help maintain system efficiency, the impact on remaining faculty could do more harm than good. APSCUF President Dr. Jamie Martin shared that, "When you are losing senior faculty at that rate, it’s a significant loss not only for students but their junior colleagues.” She emphasized that through loss of senior faculty, “You lose mentors, people that can help you navigate all of the tenure promotion processes. For junior colleagues, you lose all of that.” Even though Greenstein is closer to his goal through retirement incentives, it does not mean that it will positively impact the individuals left on campus who are already stretched thin.  
As more information regarding the consolidation comes out, we hope to see concerns of faculty and students addressed. APSCUF will continue to advocate for the students, faculty, and coaches of the PASSHE system. From the ground level, Dr. Hallen speaks for himself and colleagues, "I’m tired of consolidation, and I’m not alone. And we have barely started with hundreds of issues that need resolution." The lack of morale and rapidly increasing retirements may only be the beginning of the consequences of consolidation.

Sweet Dreams Are Made of This pt. 9
Dark! Peter x Fem Reader (Mob AU)
Summary: Peter has felt like a piece of him has been missing ever since he was taken away from his mother to be raised by his father. But when you seem to fill that piece there’s no way he’s ever letting you go
Warnings: obsessive behavior, mentions of angst
Word Count: 3k
Peter had cried himself to sleep, exhausted from the day that he had. And when he awoke he found that you had tired yourself out as well. You lashes tickling his cheek, and soft breaths escaping through your slightly parted lips.
He looked at your sleeping face, thinking about how lovely you were and yet how confused you must have been to leave him like that. He shifted so he was laying in between your legs, his arms holding you up as he leaned over your face. You made a noise of discomfort in your sleep and he hoped that you would awake and talk with him. He loved just being in your presence, but it was no fun when you were asleep and he was awake. It meant you couldn't give him the attention he so desperately craved and he had to entertain himself with wild thoughts and outlandish ideas. 
That's how he ended up fully convincing himself that your escape was not of your own doing. He had done it earlier in his hysterical thoughts but now that his mind was clear he had ruled you innocent and decided that your actions were unwilling and forced. Someone in the manor must have threatened you and told you that they’d hurt you if you didn't leave. 
There was no way you could have found the passhe, he didn't even know it was there for the longest time. Someone must have shown you that passage at the end of the hall. And he had recalled only ever seeing one X-men try to exit through there. That person was Scott Summers, he curled his lip in disgust as if the very name created a sour taste in his mouth without even uttering a single syllable. 
He remembered the night Scott had tried to escape, Peter was about 15 at the time, Scott was about 18 and just newly introduced to the house. He was brought as you were brought. He was for Jean though, her episodes were getting worse and nothing seemed to calm her. She had admitted to knowing Scott prior to joining the manor and his father thought it might help to bring him in.
So he was brought, scared as you were but relieved upon seeing Jean. He had thought she was the same as he had remembered, but he was gravely mistaken. This new version of her scared him, she was far more powerful than he had remembered, while he had suppressed his powers she grew her’s, becoming one of the most powerful pawns in his father’s game. 
So he had tried to leave. Peter was in Hank’s study when he heard the creak of something out in the hall. He had figured it was Hank coming up after talking with Raven. He opened the door to see Scott, wide eyed and perched in the hole in the wall. Picture thrown open as the wind whistled from the outside world. Peter just watched as Scott whispered hushed prayers to him, begging him not to tell and telling him that he could come with him if he wanted. They could escape together, Scott promised, tears in his eyes. 
Peter had thought about it for a moment, the image of his mother, although blurry was pulled from the back of his memory. He thought of her and stepped forward, for a moment thinking of how it would feel to finally be back home. He was still a boy and he was still scared and longed for the comfort of a mother. But the movement caused a pain to go up his back, reminding him of what would happen if orders were disobeyed. 
So Peter had called for Hank, alerting the house of Scott’s escape. Scott had jumped out the window in haste, but he didn't make it far. In falling he had broken his leg, Peter had watched from the opening as he limped across the yard before being stopped by the others. Hank had come up the stairs and led Peter down to the courtyard by the scruff of his neck. Jean was sitting cradling Scott in her arms as everyone tried to calm her down.
When Jean saw Peter she just knew that he had been the one to yell, causing Scott to jump. She turned on him, blaming him for it and he stood still letting her. She knew she couldn't touch him; the worst she could do was yell. And she did, she yelled until Erik came down from the manor and the courtyard fell silent.
Erik had been looking upon the scene from the topmost window of his room, seeing how Scott had fallen and how Jean was inconsolable because of it. He had carefully undid the latch of the windows and descended down, making an entrance as he always did, stunning the masses. 
Everyone fell silent as they awaited his judgment. He made sure that everyone was present to hear his verdict, not even letting Scott go to the hospital ward as Jean requested. He turned on Peter and he awaited the blow that would surely be dealt. But a ripple of shock was sent through all the tenants when a hand was placed upon his shoulder. It was a gentle clasp, an act of kindness was rarely shown by Erik to anyone. 
Erik was approving of his actions, as wrong as they were. Because it was the first step Peter had taken towards obedience and following in his father’s footsteps. He wanted to be revolted by the touch, he wanted to apologize to Jean and Scott but he couldn't. It was the first time Peter had been shown affection by a parent in over three years, and the smile his father gave him sent a wave of pride through him. He realized that he would do anything for the feeling of belonging and acceptance, even at the expense of others. And he did, moving up the ranks of the organization, and in time he was his father’s pride and joy. Though he never let Peter know that. 
But there was a shifting in his loyalties, Peter was starting to realign himself with a new cause and that was you. He didn't realize it but in refusing to give you up the way he had done to Scott, hsi father was beginning to lose his hold on him. And it was only the beginning. 
The sun was setting, his father would be back soon and dinner would be served. A meal that he couldn't miss, especially after refusing breakfast this morning. Peter leaned down close, letting his lips ghost over yours. He gently laid them against yours and let his eyes flutter shut, a warm feeling surging through him. Even in your sleep he was wrapped around your finger, slumping against your body as a soft whimper was pulled from his throat. It didn't feel the same as it had before. 
His movements had pulled you from your slumber, craning your neck back as you felt his cold lips tickle your neck. “You’re awake,” He mumbled against your skin. 
He stopped his movements as he leant back, his lips pouted as if he was silently asking for you to return the same affection he had given you. After what happened you figured you owned him as much, you gently gripped his face by his chin, tilting his head from side to side as you kissed either cheek. His eyes were half lidded at the feather like kisses, You pressed your last one to the mole on the tip of his nose and a shiver ran down his body. 
When he fully opened his eyes, he gave you a lazy smile and helped you up to your feet. Pulling you close as he had done before. Arms too close, and hands held too tight. ‘Peter?” He gave you a little hum to know that he was listening. “About what happened earlier-”
“Don’t.” He interrupted with a smile. You were taken aback by his simple answer. 
“But I-”
“Don’t.” He repeated. 
You opened your mouth only to close it. You didn't want to know what he meant by that. You both walked in silence back to the house. It was as if he was trying to deny what had happened didn't happen at all. He didn't even want to entertain the idea, and you were right.
 Peter was already erasing your escape from his memory, and he replaced it with his own version. The day had gone by with you reading to him in the library and you both walking out to the courtyard and falling asleep together. It lingered in the back of his mind, reminding him that that was a lie but if he focused enough it didn't seem real. 
Peter held the door open for you and you both entered awkwardly hand in hand. You could hear the bustle of life coming from the dining room and smell the awaiting food that was being set out. You were lucky enough to have avoided Breakfast with Erik and lunch with the manor. But the rumble in your stomach told you that it wouldn't be possible to skip dinner.
You walked towards the dining room and found that all the chairs were nearly filled. Everyone was seated and talking among themselves in hushed whispers. The chatter died out as they watched you approach, none dared to snicker at the way you had to stumble to walk with Peter due to his hold on you being far too restricting. But you knew they were taking it all in and formulating their smart remarks to share with one another later.
 Peter led you to the chair he had sat in last time and motioned to the one to the right of it, signaling that that would be where you would sit. He had pulled your chair out for you to sit and you had, both of you sitting for only a moment before a screeching of chairs was heard. You scrambled to get up as Peter pulled you up by your conjoined hands.
You were about to ask him for the reason behind his sudden movement but you chose to follow his gaze and the gaze of everyone else. The main doors of the mansion were being opened, Erik entered followed by Hank and a girl you didn't recognize with fiery red hair and sunken piercing eyes. You all remained staining as Erik handed his coat off and strided across the marble tiling towards the chair at the opposite end of the table. Erik sat and all eyes shifted towards Peter. He did the same, he was still holding your hand so you were left standing awkwardly with your arm angled down at his sitting form. 
Erik let out an amused snicker before waving his hand in a dismissive manner. Everyone else took their seats and Peter half pulled you back down to yours. 
As you had expected, meals in the manor felt more like a business meeting than a meal shared between family and friends. Seating was the same as it had been when you had first arrived, Erik sat where he had the far end and Peter sat at the other as he had done before. T
he middle chair where you once sat was now occupied by many amore and you felt yourself longing for the protected length of space. Now your chair was right next to Peter’s. He had pulled it so close you were almost sitting right next to him, if the arm of the chair wasn't there you would be one move away from being in his lap. You didn’t bother to move over, not wanting to upset him anymore than you already had today. 
You kept your head bowed as you ate, face burning with embarrassment, you felt as if you were some exciting oddity at a zoo or museum. Something new for them to gawk at for their own amusement. You figured that it had been a while since someone new had been introduced, you had gathered that Scott was the most recent member. Peter kept your hand in his as you both ate, forcing you to eat with only one hand. And you let him not wanting to cause a scene. A scene you knew would occur if you dared to move from where he had had you placed. 
Other than the occasional remark about the food by Erik or a question by an unknown person, or a mumble of agreement there wasn't a conversation exchanged. Even when the questions were open ended and not so subtly directed at you, you didn't speak at all, you knew it wasn't your place to do so. So you ate in silence, listening to who asked who what and trying to better understand who each of these people were. 
Initially you had planned on using this meal as a chance to try and find Scott. But you didn't even dare try to find Scott at the table, you could feel Peter’s gaze on you as if challenging you to look anywhere but him. Peter however was staring daggers at Scott. He would send menacing glares down the table and Scott felt as if a shiver was going up his spine at the hard gaze. But every time he tried to find where it was coming from Peter was busy staring at his food or at you. 
“So.” Erik started, setting his napkin down on the table as he folded his hands in front of him. His half-lidded gaze was staring down the table, eyes shifting lazily between you and Peter. “Would either of you like to tell me about (y/n)’s escape?”

How They Hold Us Down
Do managers in your work environment typically expect employees to compete with each other for scarce rewards (e.g., promotion, advancement, plum assignments, and the like)?  If so, your colleagues in such a climate will be more likely to hinder and obstruct each other than to create an environment where each colleague can find a clear path to individual achievement and advancement. Is such an environment conducive to the bottom line? Many managers seem to think so. In the PASSHE, for example, managers increasingly and systematically sew the seeds of dissension in academic departments across the Commonwealth. For example, by rewarding department chairs of academic departments in their attempts to deny tenure and promotion to an increasing percentage of incoming faculty, the desired outcome will be that a limited number of professors will advance to higher ranks (and higher pay and job security). An increasing percentage of professors thus will systematically be denied tenure and/or promotion and will be bumped off a successful career track. In the worst case, they will leave academia and pay off their exorbitant student loans in a field unrelated to their chosen academic discipline.  Only slightly better is if they are forced into an endless cycle of adjunct assignments. In the best case, they will merely suffer a delay as they move to a new system that encourages and nurtures them, and will allow them to settle down and prosper (academically and otherwise) in one place until retirement.
The practice of systematically discouraging and abusing new tenure track faculty members (ostensibly for the sake of creating a rigorous academic environment) can serve to create a revolving door for many new hires who accept tenure track positions. In a department that is colluding with management to keep an ongoing majority of the faculty members young, poor, and easily controllable, observant new professors may soon realize that it is in their best interests to hamstring their colleagues who have not yet reached the upper rungs of invulnerability. Behaving this way will make new professors seem more rigorous and professional and will show the cronies of management who are at the higher rungs of promotion in their department that they are willing to play ball according to the unspoken ground rules (adjunct faculty also fall into this trap because of their inherently vulnerable positions). PASSHE Deans and Provosts seem to be impressed by such behavior and have shown a propensity to lend their aid on the future paths of such professors to tenure and promotion. By playing the game well, clever new faculty will reap the rewards of having (a) reasonable course loads (with small class sizes and desirable meeting times/locations), (b) reasonable course assignments (to courses topics that they know well and are passionate about), (c) reasonable committee assignments, (d) reasonable related work assignments (accreditation, recruiting, community outreach, and the like), (e) reasonable office size/location, and on and on.
My department chair has baldly stated that it is much more difficult to get positive student evaluations in large classes than in small ones. Even though he said this to me in a conversation where he was commending me for my positive student evaluations, his statement nevertheless demonstrates that he is aware that the path to positive evaluations is steeper for faculty members who are assigned huge classes of non-majors than for those who work primarily with majors in small classes or one-on-one. He also has said that he works actively to keep the ratio of tenured faculty to adjunct faculty as low as possible, ostensibly to limit the likelihood, by keeping expenses low, that any of our tenured faculty members will be retrenched in the future. He has said that the purpose of our huge general education courses is to pay for our smaller more expensive music major courses, particularly for one-on-one studio instruction.
Recent Article 29 retrenchments (furloughs) in the PASSHE have disproportionately affected small cohesive departments. In cohesive departments, everyone is likely to thrive and thus be rewarded and become more expensive for the system as they grow older together. It is seemingly in the best financial interests of the PASSHE if managers can break these departments up (or get rid of them altogether) and create more cutthroat environments for new faculty who will then be more likely to obligingly shuffle through the revolving door of academic “rigor” than to insist on fair treatment. This is not to say that cohesive departments need to protect unproductive colleagues. Rigor is not antithetical to collegiality. The sad fact of the matter is that the bottom line has become the bottom line in an educational environment that increasingly favors managers who possess a bean counter mentality. Educational and human outcomes have taken a back seat to financial outcomes. The losers in this game are not only faculty members (of all ages). The primary losers are the hardworking yet vulnerable students (and their families) who are desperately trying to complete and to pay for an authentic education that includes reasonable class sizes in courses taught by academically and personally fulfilled professors.

Chapter XXII: “Unleashing Haran, Part IV” from Beneath the Armor, Volume I
Excerpt: "Din still dislikes the reckless tactic of meeting Passh on his terms rather than theirs. Even though Talia may have forced the Trandoshan to retreat to the Command Center, this does not change the fact that everyone knows there is only one entrance for the Mandalorians to use. It all seems too predictable—which is something he avoids when doing any kind of bounty mission.
"Lifting his gaze just a little, he watches as Talia enters the passenger lift. She is so determined, and almost stubborn, about rushing into meeting Passh. Since he already voiced his opinion against this plan more than once, he knows he needs to be careful when he brings up the subject for—what he hopes will be—the final time."

Hello from Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge on Assateague Island, VA! 
The students in Marine Geology have been hard at work collecting sediment through vibracoring in Swan Cove Pool, an important wetland habitat on the Refuge.  These tubes contain a continuous record of environmental change caused by both natural processes and human action. The cores we’re holding are just a few of the more than 50 taken from this region of the Delmarva Peninsula. Through their analysis, we can study barrier island formation and movement; the effects of sea level rise, storm events, and erosion on coastal zones; and salt marsh evolution and restoration on the Eastern Shore of VA.  This region is experiencing sea level rise at twice the global average!
Next stop, the lab, where we will begin our analysis by slicing open the cores. Can you smell the marsh mud from there?
