Posted a working paper on “institutional neutrality” and the purpose of universities papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf… @TheFIREorg @AFA_Alliance @HdxAcademy @AAUP @NASorg @goACTA @Speech_First @ucfreespeech @ACEducation
Concerned about possible effect on my future conversations with AI Plato.
Advice to a podcaster who shall remain nameless. Your podcast is sometime diverting, sometimes not, but it is never, as advertised, a “banger.” Manage expectations.
I guess one of the most disturbing aspects of the Trump trial are the revelations about the National Enquirer. Standards abysmally low. At least we still have the Weekly World News.
I'm not worried because the sight of protesters breaking glass and occupying Hamilton Hall is very appealing to the median voter, who supports judicious shouts of "intifada," and will swing the election for Biden.

The University of Chicago, as usual, striking the right balance. Worth reading in full. It is exactly right. President Alivisatos’ Note on the Encampment (April 29, 2024) Dear Members of the University Community, Just a few hours ago, a group of students established an…
I can’t believe that the “free speech” crowd is silent when it’s time to defend property damage and building takeovers, which are both expressive activities.
Morning thoughts: 1. Trump could well win in November. 2. Trump will seek to govern as the authoritarian leader of a populist and anti-liberal movement. 3. The guardrails, formal and informal, of liberal democracy are weaker than they were. I'm alarmed.
Taylor Swift if you're reading this reach out to me I am a philosophy professor and want to talk about Aristotle.
Canceling all collaborations with Israeli institutions [and] demanding that SU end study abroad in Israel would be gut punch to Jewish Studies at @SyracuseU and violate academic freedom dailyorange.com/2024/04/live-s… @dailyorange
thinking of my student in American Judaism @SyracuseU who told me today during office hours that her dormmate told her at start of semester that the dormmate won't room with her next year because the student's parents are Israeli
In an email to members of the University community Monday afternoon, University President Paul Alivisatos emphasized the school’s commitment to free expression. Story to come.
My alma mater joins the action.
I like this but prefer what I'm used to, a diverse and inclusive environment that is also very unfair.

In Trump's fourth term, it will no doubt be a comfort that there was crafting and music in some of the encampments.
Until encampment leaders and sympathetic faculty senate representatives are included in these negotiations, I don't see how we get anywhere.
It was a close game that I think the 76ers could have won if Embiid had stepped on a few more Knicks players.
This is good, because I’m tired of donning the costumes and doing the voices in class.

I’ve been pretending to have worthwhile views on the encampments. But it’s hard to tell what’s going on. So today I pretended to visit one.
Is it too late to establish myself as a TikTok encampment influencer?

As a white man with a 1600 SAT and 6.7 weighted GPA should I even try applying to the Yale tent encampment or should I settle with Columbia?
Over the past month, I taught a unit on neoliberalism followed by one on CRT, gender theory, & intersectionality -- & I couldn't be more delighted to read about the "protest consultant" on the job at Columbia U. It's a perfect illustration of how those 2 units go together.
Imagine having your final moments of life ruined by an off-tempo flautist.
plato was a hater to the very end
Modest proposal: The Zionists get half the library, and the Palestinian protesters get half the library, with a security barrier separating the two and ensuring everyone's safety.
“Are you a zionist ?” “Of course I am”. “So, u can’t enter.” “I’m not allowed to enter the library,while paying tuition here?” Just another Jewish student facing the disgusting antisemitism from the masked clowns “intellectuals”at UCLA. Bonus - Allahu Akbar in the background.

@glukianoff @tylercoward Thanks for reminding me that FIRE is actually not at all a “free speech” organization but actually a fascist right wing think tank dress up as an impartial group. This totally sucks.
I remarked to a family member that some of this looks reminiscent of January 6th, at least visually. The response? Growing evidence shows that Jan 6th was an inside conspiracy job. 😮 Epistemic and tribal crisis.
And now the Tentifada is taking hostages at Columbia as Hamasniks barricade themselves inside Hamilton Hall. So peaceful. Much progressive. nypost.com/2024/04/30/us-…
I'm "changing the subject" from Bailey's accusation that FIRE is "working with right-wing politicians" by criticizing mandatory DEI statements by ... pointing to an instance in which they helped challenge a Republican anti-DEI policy in court? Yeah, "pathetic" indeed.
This is hilarious and so darn predictable. Cathy is among a cadre of journalists who will attack you every time you scrutinize FIRE. In this case, she does it while changing the subject. Pathetic. Really pathetic.
Today at the local park with my 5 kids, I was told I needed a permit to be there with a group of more than 5 people. I said that they were my own kids and he said I still needed a permit!
Minus the nonsense about "encampment" and its etymology, this is terrific.
