This is devastating. Burawoy was one of the most incredible minds in US sociology, an admirable mentor to so many, and an altogether remarkable exceptional educator. www.mercurynews.com/2025/02/04/o...

A few months ago I read @philipncohen.com's Citizen Scholar in proof. It's now available in print. To restore public trust in expertise, professors can’t just profess—they need to engage. Citizen Scholar explores how contemporary academics can do this, and why they might choose to.

Flesch reading-ease is a regression of cloze tests (fill in blanks) for passages from a 1975 US Navy training manual on two predictors: (1) words per sentence (2) syllables per word. Maybe British abstracts are getting harder to read, but this isn't a valid measure of it.
