The student body presidents of over 120 colleges across 40 states wrote a letter to President Obama and congressional leaders expressing concern about failing to raise the debt ceiling. They urged bipartisan cooperation to find a balanced solution and compromise based on frameworks from the bipartisan fiscal commission and Senate group. The letter stated that without action, the economy and future of young Americans would suffer from higher debt, interest rates, and fewer jobs. It called on leaders to put politics aside and do what is right for the country.

CILogon: An Integrated Identity and Access Management Platform for Sciencejbasney
CILogon presentation at AGU16
https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm16/meetingapp.cgi/Paper/144086
When scientists work together, they use web sites and other software to share their ideas and data. To ensure the integrity of their work, these systems require the scientists to log in and verify that they are part of the team working on a particular science problem. Too often, the identity and access verification process is a stumbling block for the scientists. Scientific research projects are forced to invest time and effort into developing and supporting Identity and Access Management (IAM) services, distracting them from the core goals of their research collaboration. CILogon provides an IAM platform that enables scientists to work together to meet their IAM needs more effectively so they can allocate more time and effort to their core mission of scientific research.
The CILogon platform enables federated identity management and collaborative organization management. Federated identity management enables researchers to use their home organization identities to access cyberinfrastructure, rather than requiring yet another username and password to log on. Collaborative organization management enables research projects to define user groups for authorization to collaboration platforms (e.g., wikis, mailing lists, and domain applications). CILogon's IAM platform serves the unique needs of research collaborations, namely the need to dynamically form collaboration groups across organizations and countries, sharing access to data, instruments, compute clusters, and other resources to enable scientific discovery. CILogon provides a software-as-a-service platform to ease integration with cyberinfrastructure, while making all software components publicly available under open source licenses to enable re-use. Figure 1 illustrates the components and interfaces of this platform.
CILogon has been operational since 2010 and has been used by over 7,000 researchers from more than 170 identity providers to access cyberinfrastructure including Globus, LIGO, Open Science Grid, SeedMe, and XSEDE. The "CILogon 2.0" platform, launched in 2016, adds support for virtual organization (VO) membership management, identity linking, international collaborations, and standard integration protocols, through integration with the Internet2 COmanage collaboration software.

This case examines the organizational structure and efficiency of a small municipal government through an organizational analysis. Small town governments often have organizational structures that become inefficient over time due to changing personnel, requirements, and political versus professional leadership. The analysis identifies opportunities to streamline operations and realign responsibilities to improve efficiency and respond better to changing demands on the town. The methodology of organizational analysis is applied to evaluate policies, procedures and organizational features such as span of control and departmental responsibilities. The goal is to recognize where the structure has become outdated or complicated and changes are needed to maintain proficiency in serving the town.

The document discusses the need to protect whistleblowers who disclose research misconduct at Canadian universities and research institutions. It notes there are currently no protections for whistleblowers, leaving them vulnerable to retaliation. The document recommends amending the Federal Accountability Act to extend whistleblower protections to researchers, including students, and renaming the act to better reflect protecting the public interest. It also recommends creating a new position of Deputy Commissioner of Research Integrity to oversee complaints of reprisal and promote research integrity.

The document describes the University Innovation Fellows program, which trains student leaders to enhance their university's innovation ecosystem. It trains 60 students per academic year in a 6-week online program involving hands-on assignments and presentations. The program teaches students to critically think about strategic resources, current campus innovation activities, and strategies to drive change. It aims to fill gaps students identify, like increasing early-stage support and venture success. The document provides examples of student recommendations and networks formed through the program.

The University Innovation Fellows are part of a national movement to ensure that students gain the necessary attitudes, skills and knowledge required for them to compete in the economy of the future. These student leaders from schools around the country work with their peers to catalyze even greater levels of innovation and entrepreneurship activity on their campuses.
The program is run by the National Center for Engineering Pathways to Innovation (Epicenter), funded by the National Science Foundation as a partnership between Stanford University and the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA). University Innovation Fellows call on engineering students and their peers to dream, design and deliver innovations that solve real-world problems.

This document discusses type 1 diabetes, which affects about 3 million Americans and is diagnosed most often in childhood. It is a lifelong disease that carries risks of serious complications if not properly managed. The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation was founded in 1970 to fund research for a cure. The second and third paragraphs advertise a 2010 fundraising dinner and walk to support JDRF's efforts to find a cure through research projects like stem cell and islet cell studies. The rest of the document lists donors, sponsors, and raffle prizes for the 2010 fundraising events.
