Yeah, I'm hoping they'll let me reschedule. I've done that with the county court in the past, but this is our local city court (which I honestly didn't know existed, I thought everything was handled through the county) and the form seems weirdly half-assed and also weirdly specific about DUI 🤷♀️.
So, just two times per year, I get the chance to meet with the faculty in my liaison subject areas and market library services services tp them. I just got summoned for jury duty for the date in the Fall (which is the most important date). What are the odds they'd excuse me for it?
Op-eds, academic articles by Provost Santiago Schnell flagged as ‘AI-written’ by ‘near-zero error’ AI detector Pangram
Schnell said he used artificial intelligence for “making writing processes more efficient,” but that AI was not a “substitute” for his own “intellectual judgment or authorship.”

The provost of Dartmouth, at which I teach, has been using AI to write both academic papers & national op-eds, according to brave reporting by @thedartmouth.bsky.social. Many students are already bitter about AI. This leaves us as faculty no ground to stand on. www.thedartmouth.com/article/2026...

Stay furious. Stay serious. Organize.
