Normalize the dismantling of intrusive, nonconsensual surveillance technologies

(The novel is out of print and I got a used 1940s edition that turned out to be uncut / unopened, how thrilling.)

Oh hell yes 👻

Personally gunning for this option

I’m in the same boat, pal.

My college uses Google suite applications and our calendars are visible / accessible to anyone within the organization, including students

All good ideas and I know you speak from experience!

I had to talk myself down from the fury whiteout and respond to the meeting invite with a carefully and kindly worded email about how there are lots of tasks in a professor’s workday that don’t show up as “scheduled” events on a Google calendar

ad lib lectures have become my pedagogical bread and butter but I also worry that they’re growing increasingly unhinged because <everything detailed in that aforementioned post>

Much appreciated 😱

Right!

This is a generous perspective and I appreciate it

I keep asking colleagues like WHAT DO I DO and “be worse but not, like, bad, if possible” is the only advice I’ve been hearing

I’m honestly at a loss. I don’t know how to give effective feedback on writing at such scale, or in a way that honors students’ humanity and effort.
