And so, with this new strategic plan, we wash away the memory of our last CEO, as well as everything he may have achieved.
As university leadership and lawmakers double down on the idea that Columbia’s Gaza Solidarity Encampment is a threat to safety, here is what it looks like at midday: quiet and peaceful. As usual the greatest threat of violence and escalation comes from outside this encampment.
One general law governs higher ed commentary: the less one interacts with current university students, the more vocally one claims to understand them, and the quicker one is to condemn them.

Your doctor getting a raise is not the same as you getting a raise.
The concept that denigrating a particular constituency might radicalize them further is applied exclusively to conservative voters. I've never read a warning that speaking about young people in the most unhinged terms available might trigger a backlash.

I will say, one silver lining to this horror we’re living through is that the left has reclaimed the mantle of academic and intellectual freedom, and more broadly of free speech, while the right has made clear how little they care about any of that

Unions have historically organized against the working class instead of the bourgeoisie several times. White collar workers went on strike to try and crush the early USSR and had to be disbanded.

Everyone else is too scared to say it but @Tyler_A_Harper is an example of the worst trend in American society: the three interchangeable names thing. We used to be a proper country with proper first and last names.
And so, with this new strategic plan, we wash away the memory of our last CEO, as well as everything he may have achieved.

As far as I'm concerned this is the only Koch that matters
It seems weird that people are still talking about “the Koch Brothers” as a current force in American politics, without mentioning that David Koch died five years ago.
Hard agree. I had a conservative guest speaker visit my politics of public education class at Yale this fall and he was so shocked by the warm and interested welcome he received that he asked me if they were faking it

My dim memories of covering this in seminar was that Cortez arrived at a decisive moment for Meso-American geopolitics, everyone tried to use him to advance their own complex agendas, which made it easier for him to carry out his own, more straightforward goals.
The college class that changed my life and got me to abandon neuroscience was a seminar basically structured around this question. Why wasn’t Cortez murdered on sight? Why did anyone help him with his military conquests? How lucky was the bastard?
So now all these universities are bound to meet any student occupation with overwhelming force, for consistency's sake?
