@JoyceCarolOates Let’s also note that universities have skin in the game too. They internally fund parts of even federally funded research projects. This is a partnership— perhaps the most successful research partnership ever created.
Seems important to mention in this moment that I just finished up teaching Marx’s Manifesto in my GenEd course Perspectives in American Culture. Students very engaged
Career Advice | Why I Invited #AI to Dinner Asking students to converse with chat bots can help them see academic inquiry as a conversation, Michael Millner writes. bit.ly/4eO22g7
@danopaquette Just about whatever is coming out the speaker
I often find myself wondering how many students a given college president knows on a first name basis. The number is often low, I suspect. Do they have office hrs? Do they have lunch in the cafeteria? Or are they about as remote from students as the president of Bank of Am.
@JordanSCarroll Wow. This banning of words strikes me as a particularly awful way of teaching writing. I also have a 10th grader and I too am struck by how out of date the writing instruction is, even as it’s well meaning. High school essay writing instruction needs some help.
@PradyuPrasad @kushal1t I think of the phil course as intellectual history where, like historians, we investigate ways ideas developed and their context and consequences. The intro science course teaches how to predict and control the environment. Not the same project.
This piece tries to muddle the discussion of banned books, but the difference between the sides remains clear: one is OK with censorship and the other is not. nytimes.com/2023/10/01/opi…
@Peter08946 @WenSchw @sivavaid @Lollardfish @bencarp @jbf1755 I completely agree with Siva. It’s important for students to have a space where they can take risks, tryout arguments, ask heretical questions without being recorded etc
Alas, terrible news that bookforum is going under
This is awful. A rich person should buy Bookforum and leave it completely alone
"The obscene and glorious embodiment of a fool's errand" is a great description of one of the art genres I love most. Nick Cave: theredhandfiles.com/learn-how-to-p…
@PublishersWkly @dan_sinykin @PublicBooks Very interesting & important piece examining data on the One Black Author Theory as played out in the NYTimes. Hope @nytimesbooks responds. I also wonder about data on NYT's coverage of first books by Black authors. More coverage of first books would help.

I love the conversion of art in one form into art in a different form. I should teach a whole class where all we do is convert from one form to another. Andrew Bird Duets With Phoebe Bridgers on New Song “I Felt a Funeral, In My Brain” pitchfork.com/news/andrew-bi… via @pitchfork
Helpful piece on how high use of contingent faculty makes good teaching difficult (no fault of teachers). Also, teaching evaluations contribute to problem. How to do better evals ? nytimes.com/2022/10/05/opi…
@AaronRHanlon Makes me think of teaching as coaching. A coach doesn't begin by creating an environment dedicated to "weeding out" players or failing a bunch. Some will fail, but one can't start with that attitude and make it central -- your team will suck.
