Nah, it's at least 40% professors avoiding grading or writing.
Bluesky is NOT a niche microblogging website. Bluesky is the well attended office slack of illustrious publication Liberal Currents.

👇🎯💯 Professors don’t get appointed to Fortune 500 corporate boards. CEOs shouldn’t get to dominate university boards.
Appoint actual professors - educators - to the board of regents. No CEOs. No corporate lawyers. The people who do the teaching and research should be running universities. This is the only way they can truly serve the public good.
Higher ed board regents are appointed by the governor in Texas.
Notably UT board chairman Kevin Eltife, A&M chairman Robert Albritton and Texas Tech chairman Cody Campbell's terms are all up in February 2027. All three heavily involved in college athletics at those schools.

I keep thinking of this line from Zohran Mamdani's long NYT interview earlier this year: "I think the point of political capital is to spend it to deliver material change."

Big news for USG professors, staff, and students. A whole new reality.
The new Democratic governor of Georgia will have the opportunity to appoint something like 7 regents of the University of Georgia during her term and I hope that she replaces some of the current members with actual educators www.usg.edu/regents/memb...

In my world: university presidents and trustees and the “heterodox” professors, some of the physician-pundits who played footsie with RFK Jr., the professional societies that remained silent.
Many people, institutions, and companies sacrificed their integrity because they thought Trump’s power grab was inevitably going to succeed and he’d be the American Orban.
Don’t forget their names.

And where will new professors come from without RAs. But clearly our institutions consider professors a nuisance and find this development a welcome excuse to stop pretending to care about that

Professors want Abbott and Paxton to know it was them.
Seeing Abbott and Paxton go down is so sweet.

In the future, professors will be judged not by output but by their ability to care and nurture
This will be deeply unpopular in some quarters

Also a big race for immigration law professors
Kris Kobach, one of the worst anti-trans attorneys general in in the United States, is getting crushed in the first set of results.
This guy was behind some of the ID revocations and the worst attacks on trans people in any state.
Incredible night for trans people.
