Happy to write about the #adaptiveclimbing festival in the #RedRiverGorge #Kentucky for @ClimbingMag @outsidemagazine:

“Certain things just aren’t ideal.”- @FrankBruni. But as he tells @arishapiro in this interview, you get to make a decision to focus on those things, or focus on what you *can do*. There is a lot of goodness in here: https://t.co/YOsTgxPmGU

Tonight I had the privilege of doing our first collaborative story with @3NewsNowOmaha and @flatwaterfreep. We highlighted issues some @OMetroRider customers have had riding @rideORBT. Take some time to watch and read the future of our news partnership. https://t.co/4RyMSHbcSi

A disabled veteran had to travel to Metro's offices to pick up an ORBT pass guaranteed to work. It cost him a half day's pay.

We are humbled by the honesty of those we interview. So, it’s time we’re honest with you, we need your help. We can't survive on grants alone and we need your donation today so we may take full advantage of the matching funds available to us through #NewsMatch by the end of Dec.

We are thankful to have the bell hooks center on campus to continue her legacy. This is an inclusive space where historically underrepresented students can come to be as they are, outside of the social scripts that circumscribe their living.
