It seems grimly appropriate that so much of higher ed is leaning into “The future is STEM; the humanities are dead” at a time when the most significant recent advancement in STEM, AI, is raising fundamental questions that are as much philosophical and humanistic as scientific.
Kingston University’s acclaimed philosophy centre is set to close under plans to shut the institution’s humanities department – a move that would also end English literature and modern languages courses. @jgro-the.bsky.social reports
