Sighted out in the wild … #CapitalizingonCollege on display at the OUP table at #AERA2025 … I’ve started reading this the other day and it’s an important work, not just to understand the money issues of tuition-driven schools, but how these issues shape students experiences in college

I’m teaching a new (to me) class in the fall - Cross Cultural Perspectives on Religion & Education - I’m excited to dig into my first stack of readings, trying to understand the complexities of religion & learning to be in the world … would also love any other recommendations

Taking the train down to Baltimore today for the Philosophy of Education Society meeting and while I know I should use this time to work on grading, instead I am enjoying some reading about philosophy and plants @philosophyofed.bsky.social

He hasn't made the jump to bluer skies, but I've heard bits & pieces of this research from Joshua for a while now & I'm excited to be able to finally add this to my reading list just in time for the end of the semester. If you care about or are interested in higher ed this is going to be a must read

Getting ready to begin a new semester and I’m excited to meet the students I’ll be learning with this semester - snow on the ground, a chill in the air, and a beautiful building to teaching in - things are starting off well

For more that 20 years Rouault has been a favorite of mine, his art is haunting & invites meditation, I find myself constantly returning to his Miserere series, so I’m excited to have some time to dive into this new collection of essays

Tomorrow I get to introduce my students to the fiction of Wendell Berry, I think we should read more fiction in educational studies & teacher prep classes. Literature changes & forms us, it teaches us about humanity and ourselves. We might form better teacher if we used more fiction in our classes.
