Remember it was on May Day that Tess ruined her life and avoid making eye contact while circling your Maypole
Ahem. That book you’re talking about, it’s actually 246 pages. But who’s counting. (Not Pitchfork editors, apparently.)
Today I learned that people post their SAT scores on their L1nk3d1n profiles and now I’m just stuck here feeling extra sad for humanity
Spent the day working on campus and was unnerved to see how many of my fellow faculty members also spent the day working on campus.
I am painting bookshelves-to-be and my neighbors next door are having a loud-ass backyard wedding. It’s a nice Saturday.
Saw Bonello’s LA BÊTE last night, which is much more David Lynch than Henry James (though it is *very loosely* inspired by a James story). Mesmerizing if you’re interested in the question, “What if a movie except just 2.5 hrs of pure dread?”
Man, this guy must really like steak sauce
Is it just me, or does the inflatable slice of pizza in the campus courtyard look kinda … lonely?
“They’ll say we’re disturbing the peace, but there is no peace. What really bothers them is that we are disturbing the war.” Howard Zinn 1971
Just ruined everyone’s life with this last writing prompt of the semester

RT if you've never taken someone else's job while they were on strike.
“The encampment is on a campus lawn allocated by the university for demonstrations. More than a hundred student demonstrators were arrested.”

Indie Bookstore Day is Saturday, April 27 💖
Showing students in my morning classes scenes of protests happening on other campuses, because it’s tempting to view one’s own campus as a bubble unto itself when it really is not
“The campus is a fantasy and a media trope.” And that’s only the tip of the iceberg here, folks

A few highlights from the last discussion in my phenomenal Sci Fi/Fantasy course. we can’t look away from the worst of our higher ed communities & histories in this moment, but we also have to keep remembering & celebrating the best of our students & communities.

"Can these things hang together? a liberal arts college for critical thinking a professional school linked to employers a research machine focused on government grants a commercialization incubator a professional sports franchise"
One thing that's becoming clear from how the protests are being handled is that, contrary to what undergrads and many faculty believe, the liberal arts college is not at the core of the university anymore. The modern university is being shown to be an incoherent institution.
I'm sure you're working on this, but change your assignments so that you don't get AI submissions to grade. IMO it's not as hard as people think.
I grade too many AI submissions every day. It makes me more sad than angry. I'm working on ways to address it. By using AI to think for us, we stagnate; there are no real new ideas and insights, just regurgitated, predictable reflections of our previous experiences and bias.
@CriticalAI I mean, it’s not that hard to design assignments that a thoughtless use of AI can’t help students much with, but nothing seems to discourage them from trying or from starting there and then trying to finesse the language/add some material in. I don’t want them to start there.
Two of my favourite piano concerto albums this afternoon: Stephen Hough in Birmingham and Minnesota with Saint-Saëns and Tchaikovsky. The freshness, wit, energy and poignancy of these records is quite something. Astounding music-making.
"It's cops that escalated things, like they always do, and they just had a hard-on after Columbia," said LuLa, a City College student.
In the center of campus now devoid of students and filled instead with hundreds of police officers, the NYPD's leadership raised the American flag, to the cheers of police in riot gear. A dispatch from a dark night at City College for @HellGateNY. hellgatenyc.com/nypd-storms-ci…

found a pic of the outside agitators
Columbia is broken, CUNY is burning, Rafah stands starving at the brink of massacre: for a May Day in the blackened, rotten heart of empire, I can only give you the bracken-dust of my heart's dead forests. May we hope again. Claes Oldenburg"Empire" ("Papa") Ray Gun-1959
These people know nothing of the long cultural legacy of DC straight edge.
The Community Guidelines at the George Washington University encampment are very much like what Hamas would want for them, especially “no sexual relationships” part.
They're certainly going to have a hard time continuing to use the legacy of 1968 as a selling point
I don’t think Columbia University will ever recover from this. This will be their legacy — a full out war on their students for peacefully protesting a U.S.-backed ethnic cleansing campaign that has systematically murdered nearly 40,000 people.
