Honoring ELUM Achievements and Announcing the Next Class of Fellows
During a time when good news is a little difficult to come by, we were thrilled to have received an especially large number of emails announcing promotions and awards earned by our ELUMs. If you check out the ELUM News section below, you'll see 13 announcements, all of them excellent achievements. And we know this is probably only a smattering of the hard work and determination of our ELUM community. Do you have an advancement or award to share? Or just a good story of the work you've been doing? We'd love to hear it. And congrats to all of you, for continuing your hard work during a time of such trial and uncertainty. You truly are an amazing community.

The Chronicle of Higher Education, April 10, 2020:
By now, many people are slowly coming to terms with the idea that the Covid-19 crisis may continue for months and create a radically changed world. That realization is understandably distressing, given the prospect of prolonged physical distancing, rising death tolls, and serious economic decline. As the denial fades, fear and anger take its place, which can result in emotional and intellectual paralysis.
The prospect of an enduring crisis is frightening. But as someone who has lived and worked in disaster conditions in other contexts, I can assure those of you new to crises that this initial wave of acute distress is temporary. How you feel today is not how you will feel in a month, or a year - even if the crisis continues. At this early stage, all we can see are the walls, the restrictions, the losses. But there is light between those walls.
Inside Higher Ed, April 21, 2020:
Early journal submission data suggest COVID-19 is tanking women's research productivity.
The Guardian, April 24, 2020:
Health professionals, experts and unions say poorly fitting equipment is risking lives of female workers
The Chronicle of Higher Education, Academe Today, April 28, 2020:
It's time - right now - for better communication from administrators about the pandemic fallout on campuses at this very moment, for the summer, and in preparation for the fall.
Inside Higher Ed, April 29, 2020:
Colleges that share information and consult broadly with diverse constituencies have been able to respond more effectively than those that rely on top-down decision making, writes Marjorie Hass.
Center for Creative Leadership, Leading Effectively, April 29, 2020:
Faced with a challenge that has no solution? Here's how to mobilize.
Here's why the way you talk to yourself impacts how others see you.
Inside Higher Ed, May 1, 2020:
Kimberly D. McKee and Denise A. Delgado highlight three crucial components that can help such students not only survive but also thrive at their institutions.
Welcome to the DEI Shift. Our mission is to create a podcast series on diversity, equity, and inclusion (D.E.I.) in medicine that sparks discussion and provides practice-changing data and stories for a physician, student, allied health professional, and health care leader audience.
We hope that listeners will be able to gain useful information to improve their practices and environments, to gain empathy, cultural competency, and humility, and to learn more about emerging D.E.I. concepts. We will discuss issues related to gender, race, sexuality, religion, ability, socioeconomics, and so much more.

Vogue, April 23, 2020:
In a knee-length white dress and a geometric headpiece stamped with a big red cross, the nurse on the cover of a 1918 issue of Vogue doesn't resemble the frontline responders we see every night on the news, but her mission was the same as theirs: saving lives.
The shortage of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) has unexpectedly made medical apparel the subject of headlines. What is a new subject to the general public is an all too familiar one to many nurses and medical professionals who have had to resort to drastic, and often antiquated, means to ensure basic levels of protection. But this is hardly the first time in history nurses and other medical professionals have taken their safety into their own hands.
