Students at Govt Polytechnic Sundernagar created a sonic fire extinguisher using low-frequency sound to extinguish flames without water or chemicals. Such students should be given opportunities instead of those from Galgotia.

BREAKING: FIRE and College Pulse have just released the 2025 College Free Speech Rankings. Surveying 58K+ students from 257 institutions, the results find that free speech has been threatened in historic ways since the Israel-Hamas war began. Expand to learn more ⬇️ 🟡 UVA was ranked as this year’s best school for free speech! Michigan Technological University, Florida State University, Eastern Kentucky University, and Georgia Tech round out the top five. 🔴 Harvard University is ranked as the worst school for free speech for the second year in a row. Columbia University and New York University round out the bottom three — each earning an “abysmal” rating. 🔴 Campus deplatforming attempts spiked by 400% since Hamas’ October 7th attack on Israel. 🔴 7 out of 10 students are uncomfortable publicly disagreeing with a professor about a controversial political topic. 🔴 54% of students report it’s difficult to talk about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. On 17 campuses where this issue was especially contentious, 75% or more marked the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as difficult to discuss. 🔴 1 in 4 students said it was unclear whether their college administration protects free speech. 🔴 1/3 of students approve of the use of violence at least “rarely” to stop campus speakers. 🔴 7 out of 10 students say it's at least “rarely okay” to shout down a speaker. Given all of this, it is unsurprising that American confidence in higher education is at a record low.

🚨BREAKING: Lake Stevens School District addresses altercations at anti-ICE walkouts, Lake Stevens Police investigate The Lake Stevens School District today released a statement on altercations that arose during student-led walkouts against ICE activity. The District in its statement “recognize and value students’ First Amendment rights and respect their ability to engage in lawful, peaceful expression” and very clearing stated that “bullying, harassment, hate, or violence in any form” will not be condoned. The Lake Stevens Police Department (LSPD) is now investigating, in accordance with district policy, incidents of “a small number of students engaged in behavior” that did not meet the District’s “expectations for safety and respect.” Over 100 students from Lake Stevens High School walked out of school on Feb. 5. Among the tensions, a fight broke out during the Feb. 5 walkout at Lundeen Park, where an 18-year-old student suffered a scratch to his face and broken glasses after attempting to stop anti-ICE student protesters from throwing water bottles at passing cars. On Feb. 6, over 100 students from Cavelero Mid High School and Lake Stevens Middle School walked out of school to protest against ICE. A vehicle, at an overrun crosswalk with protesters near 91st Avenue East and Market Place, struck one student who did not require medical attention. The District is encouraging students who experienced or are experiencing harassment or retaliation for their views to report it to a trusted adult for it to be “promptly” address. When the District became aware of plans for the walkouts, administrators focused on campus safety, continued instruction for students who remained in class, communicated with families, and coordinated with LSPD to support safety in the surrounding area. Students who left campus without authorization were marked absent in accordance with established procedures, and caregivers are notified. “We remain committed to supporting our students, listening to concerns, and working together as a community,” The District wrote. “Our shared focus must continue to be the well-being, growth, and education of every child we serve.” The Lake Stevens School Board meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. today, February 11, at the Education Service Center, 12309 22nd Street NE, in Lake Stevens. Written community comments will be accepted before 4:00 p.m. today, or community members can deliver comments in person during the meeting. The School Board meeting will focus on the adoption of a Resolution related to Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) membership, approval of donations, and infrastructure bids. 📸Source: Video and images provided to the Lynnwood Times by a reader who would like to remain anonymous.

🚨 SCIENTISTS JUST DEVELOPED A SOLAR DESALINATION SYSTEM THAT PRODUCES FRESH WATER WITHOUT CHEMICALS OR BRINE WASTE. Researchers at the University of Rochester have created laser-etched solar panels that turn seawater into drinking water using only sunlight with no chemical additives and no toxic brine discharge. The panels are treated with femtosecond lasers to become super light-absorbing and superwicking. Seawater spreads into an ultra-thin layer, evaporates rapidly under sunlight, and the leftover salts are pushed to passive regions via the “coffee ring effect,” keeping the active area clean and functional. Why this matters: • Conventional desalination produces massive amounts of harmful brine and requires heavy chemical treatment • This new approach leaves behind solid salt instead of liquid waste • It was successfully tested on real seawater from the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans • The same system can potentially extract valuable minerals like lithium from the collected salts The deeper implication: Desalination has always faced a brutal trade-off: clean water at the cost of environmental damage and high energy use. This research points toward a future where solar-powered systems could produce fresh water while actually recovering critical resources instead of creating pollution. It’s still early-stage, but the combination of low energy use, no brine, and mineral recovery makes this one of the more promising sustainable desalination concepts in development. Would you rather see massive traditional desalination plants… or distributed solar systems that turn seawater into both water and critical minerals? Follow for more frontier clean tech and materials science that could reshape how we solve resource challenges.
