Three multibillionaires now own more wealth than the bottom 90% of America – 291 million Americans. This is what oligarchy looks like.

This is a gripping read by a professor in ceramics at WVU.

“The creative process of artmaking positively heightens our somatosensory, motor, and visual areas in ways that passive learning cannot. As one student commented last week, what is an art school without these programs?”

I hope faculty around the country fully understand that West Virginia University’s fight is *our* fight.

We are not just spectators.

I'm begging anyone that cares about higher ed to read up on what's happening at WVU because I promise you, wherever you are right now is NEXT.

This 🧵 is a good place to start.

If you’re a faculty member who does not yet fear for your job, you should pay attention to what’s happening at WVU. They’re coming for you, too. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. But one day, in the not so distant future, they’re gonna come for you.

As we head into Labor Day weekend with another round of bad news at WVU about potential layoffs, I hope more faculty and staff join those of us who are members of West Virginia Campus Workers. All workers, including campus workers, deserve and need a union.

I saw this shared elsewhere and I am blown away and haunted by these words. Such power, beauty, resistance. Rest in peace.

'I was only seeking to delay the lawful and peaceful transition of power in my republic for a specific period of time' is perhaps not the cunning legal defense it might seem to some.

In the last 48 hours school districts and libraries across three states have been shuttered by terroristic threats over their inclusion of LGBT people and I'm just wondering where all the surely earnest concern for academic freedom went

I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.

Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.
