Certainly there are multiple paths and opinions. But IMO jettisoning the humanities in this time of reckless inhumanity is absolutely the wrong call.

Hugs Helma. I'm so upset about and for the department and division...such stupid and reckless and evil bullshit.

Friends, I fully admit to having my head mostly buried in the sand when it comes to AI and teaching, but really can't do it anymore. Can anyone point me to workshops or training in AI and pedagogy? Thank you!

We researchers must stay in the game re: climate—the longue durée laying a foundation for better times. Pictured: my 9 million post-its as I devoured @vickyausten.bsky.social ‘s environmental humanities book for @rheaclassical.bsky.social. Much to dig into!

Me too @vickyausten.bsky.social! I love this idea from @rheaclassical.bsky.social of multisensory gossip sessions, and it’s just so fab to see #multisensory studies go from strength to strength too! 😍

For Blue Monday we can't think of anything more appropriate than this charming depiction of a man getting his face eaten off by a leopard.
