Hey everyone,

It feels like every day, I'm wondering how STS can help me make sense of
what's happening with large language models and schooling. Thanks to our
next First Monday STSS host, Kim Swenson, this theme is at the core of our
next Monday meeting. If you haven't listened yet, she's selected an
interesting and timely podcast episode, "Rethinking School in the Age of
AI":

Details on how to join the conversation are below.

Oh, and don't forget: the early registration deadline for 4S has just been
extended to *May 7th. *Remember to register soon for the best rates!

Yours,
Monika Sengul-Jones

PS. It was great to visit UW Tacoma for the STS in CRISIS mixer this week.
Thank you for your hospitality, UW Tacoma affiliates, and the thoughtful
perspectives on crisis and expertise.
