With sufficient resources, time, and (ill) will, one could "discover" a few passages of "duplicative language" in the published work of *any* active scholar, myself included. The assault on Claudine Gay's academic integrity is simply an undisguised effort to take down a successful Black woman.

Mask up for the next 10 days when you're indoors in public so you can just share time with friends & family, not flu or Covid, later this month! And, for everyone's sake, mask up at the airport, on the plane, at the winter concerts, and on public transit through the New Year!

This is what did it for me. I was inactive on Xitter for the lat few weeks, but the return of Alex Jones was, and is, intolerable. I felt such relief when I closed down my account.

Same in TX. I just did a “training” for evaluation of grad applications, in the wake of the affirmative action ban. 35 minutes of what felt like a wink-nod. Really, students are the ones who need training for writing statements that let us read them in context.

Paste it to your refrigerator: this is the world the GOP wants, no matter what bullshit they mumble about moderation and exceptions.
