#HigherEd--5
5. The 'scholarship' backing up 'enrollment cliff' comes from Chicago School economists who have long been opposed to expanding accessibility to public education, especially HigherEd. Of course, it's also conveniently reconcilable with reactionary 'replacement theory' hookum.

I know it’s tempting to see ICE kidnapping international students as random acts of cruelty, & that’s right, but also the inevitable chilling of international enrollments, which generate 5% of US HigherEd revenue, will put more pressure on institutions to accept blackmail terms for federal funds.

The game is to destroy academia and take control of universities. Throttling science funding is just one more move in the broader assault against #highered.

Fight back. Don't give in. Don't give up. #AAUP #Standupforscience

I always thought that OSP was for academics to spend 6 months solely on research.

Now I realise it's so they can have a scheduled mental breakdown once ever 5 years.

I was expelled during an open harassment and retaliation investigation—by the administrators being investigated. No warning, process, or appeal.

It gets worse:

This is Rebecca. She was a PhD student at the University of Rochester.

After speaking out about harassment by a professor, the Eastman School of Music didn’t support her — they retaliated, then expelled her without warning.

All for telling the truth — and we need your help.

This piece is everything. I'm reposting this while at a summer gathering of #HigherEd folks where I've been about 5 mins away from a total autistic meltdown for 1.5 days because of entirely preventable environmental challenges. I know I'm not the only one.

Ask us. We can tell you how to do this!!

The pandemic’s impact on #education runs deeper than an embrace of remote learning. New research shows growing mistrust of #teachers, reversing the praise they received during lockdowns. buff.ly/rAuNAR2

Critical books about the state of #HigherEd, No.5:

'The ‘glue’ that holds this perverse and quite ridiculous idea of the supremacy of the market together in universities, and allows it proceed uninterrupted in doing its deforming and disfiguring work ... is the notion of fear.' (John Smyth)

"Based only on their accent, lower-working-class people were judged to be on average 14% less intelligent, 4% less friendly and 5% less trustworthy than upper-middle-class people."
