Yesterday another person (a staff colleague) insisted that faculty jobs are "easy" because we get our summers off. When I pointed out we teach and do research in the summers, they said, "that's by choice." And folks wonder why I'm so angry all the time.

#ColoradoCollege's senior English Literature majors presented their thesis research today, and they were superb. Feeling so lucky to get to work with such smart, curious students. A bright spot in uncertain times.

This is an important legal victory. We need clear protections for a free press and journalistic integrity. We need accountability.
