We're hiring. It's a real needle-in-a-haystack search for an experienced teacher who can help reimagine our flagship (i.e., huge) intro course for a new era. 3/3 load. Convenient to Hollywood and Holbox.

We support our Berkeley colleagues and call on CUNY not to repeat this mistake

In Britain Elizabeth Robins Pennell wrote macaroni instructions in the 1890s and mid-19th c cookbooks like Mrs Beeton’s all have pasta recipes. Of course they are all terrible, as you’d expect for Victorian food - boil macaroni for half an hour, etc.

This is an amazing resource and other colleges should do the same. Good for CUNY for stepping up to the plate in this way.
