Trying a new tack to convince my students to do the reading for our classes. No more, "It's your education; value it." Now it's: "The fascists don't want you to have access to a liberal arts education - especially about the history of interwar antisemitism. Reading for class is anti-fascist praxis."

I also have them read about the biased & manipulative power of AI. And if they use LLMs (not forbidden at our uni) in their term papers, they have to add 2 pages explaining how they have analytically & methodologically countered potential distortions in their findings. 😜
