NEA grant cancellations will affect the arts throughout Illinois.

"American institutions of higher learning have...the essential freedom to determine, on academic grounds, whom to admit and what is taught, how, and by whom." The MLA's @paulakrebs.bsky.social has signed @aacu.org's statement on political interference in higher ed: www.aacu.org/newsroom/a-c...

Not your typical Star Wars, but scarily prescient of current events. Season 1 was phenomenal; season 2 has just dropped. #Andor youtu.be/179jSOYjd1Q?...
