Sehr gute Einordnung: "Angesichts der offensichtlichen Wirk- und Sinnlosigkeit der meisten Kulturboykotte [...] fragt man sich bisweilen, ob es den Aufrufenden nicht eher um Stabilisierung der eigenen Gruppen-Identität und Feindbilder geht als um politische oder gesellschaftliche Veränderung."

In der Debatte um die Ausladung Lahav Shanis präsentierte sich die deutsche Klassikwelt geschlossen verschlossen. Am Ende ist es Shani selbst, der die Differenzierungsfähigkeit und Empathie zeigt, die deutschen Kommentatoren und Institutionen scheinbar abgehen. van-magazin.de/mag/lahav-sh...

So großartig AI auch sein kann, der Missbrauch durch Menschen wird eine krasse Herausforderung - in so vielen Bereichen…

But it feels like with AI right there, I can’t see a way where we’ll get back to reading as a backbone of college education. And it makes me so very sad.

Leider relevant, leider auch ratlos:

Letzte Seminare gehalten und immer ratloser im Bezug auf aktuelle Herausforderungen in der Lehre.
Bei ca 2/3 der Studis komme ich gar nicht dazu, über Inhaltliches zu reden, weil Basales fehlt: Ein Kalender, Bewusstsein für To Dos und Deadlines, und ganz grundlegendes Textverständnis.

Ich frag mich, ob den Tradwives auf Insta mal jemand sagen sollte, dass man auch als arbeitende Frau seinem Kind im Kostümchen schicke Avocado-Smoothies zubereiten kann, wenn man das denn möchte. Nur dann hätten sie eins mehr.

"Evie Magazine" sieht aus wie ein reguläres Hochglanz-Magazin für Frauen - dabei handelt es sich um ein Propaganda-Blatt, dass völkisches Denken bewirbt. "Evie" verpackt traditionalistische Gender-Rollen & Rassismus in glossy Insta-Optik: www.republik.ch/2025/06/03/e...

🚨🚨 Deranged letter from Education Secretary Linda McMahon to Harvard’s president, cutting off federal funding for any new grants.

Worth reading in full. It is NUTS.

THE SECRETARY OF EDUCATION
WASHINGTON, DC 20202
May 5, 2025
Dr. Alan Garber
Office of the President
Harvard University
Massachusetts Hall
Cambridge, MA 02138
Dr. Garber,
The Federal Government has a sacred responsibility to be a wise and important steward of American taxpayer dollars. Harvard University, despite amassing a largely tax-free $53.2 billion dollar endowment (larger than the GDP of 100 countries), receives billions of dollars of taxpayer largess each year. Receiving such taxpayer funds is a privilege, not a right. Yet instead of using these funds to advance the education of its students, Harvard is engaging in a systemic pattern of violating federal law. Where do many of these "students" come from, who are they, how do they get into Harvard, or even into our country—and why is there so much HATE? These are questions that must be answered, among many more, but the biggest question of all is, why will Harvard not give straightforward answers to the American public?
Harvard University has made a mockery of this country's higher education system. It has invited foreign students, who engage in violent behavior and show contempt for the United States of America, to its campus. In every way, Harvard has failed to abide by its legal obligations, its ethical and fiduciary duties, its transparency responsibilities, and any semblance of academic rigor. It had scrapped standardized testing requirements and a normalized grading system. This year Harvard was forced to adopt an embarrassing "remedial math" program for undergraduates.
Why is it, we ask, that Harvard has to teach simple and basic mathematics, when it is supposedly so hard to get into this "acclaimed university"? Who is getting in under such a low standard when others, with fabulous grades and a great understanding of the highest levels of mathematics, are being rejected?
Harvard has even been embroiled in humiliating plagiarism scandals, exposed clearly and plainly in the media, with respect to your then…

$running the institution in a totally chaotic way. Harvard alumnus and highly successful hedge fund manager Bill Ackman noted that, under her leadership, Harvard has become "a political advocacy organization for one party." Ackman has called for the resignation of Pritzker, concluding that the "[t)he mismanagement here is Penny Pritzker" and noting that any serious corporation would have removed her after a litany of recent failings and the fact that, incredibly, "Harvard is not in a good financial position." According to Ackman, one of the world's foremost finance experts, Harvard's so-called S53 billion endowment is "massively overstated as far as what it's really worth," and Harvard has irresponsibly taken out $8 billion in debt. If this is true, it is concerning evidence of Harvard's disastrous mismanagement, indicating an urgent need for massive reform-not continued taxpayer investment. If Harvard prefers not to change, then Harvard should have no problem using its overflowing endowment to fund its bloated bureaucracy. At its best, a university should fulfill the highest ideals of our Nation, and enlighten the thousands of hopeful students who walk through its magnificent gates. But Harvard has betrayed this ideal. Perhaps most alarmingly, Harvard has failed to abide by the United States Supreme Court's ruling demanding that it end its racial preferencing, and continues to engage in ugly racism in its undergraduate and graduate schools, and even within the Harvard Law Review itself. Our universities should be bastions of merit that reward and celebrate excellence and achievement. They should not be incubators of discrimination that encourage resentment and instill grievance and racism into our wonderful young Americans. The above concerns are only a fraction of the long list of Harvard's consistent violations of its own legal duties. Given these and other concerning allegations, this letter is to inform you that Harvard should no longer seek GRANTS from the fede…$
