One major advantage that the center-right has in shaping the higher ed discussion (besides money) is the complete and total capture of mainstream media. A compliant press happily renders right-wing talking points for the PMC on both its editorial and reporting sides. Exhibit A is the @nytimes.com.

A friend of mine caught silly accent errors and more in a copyedited chapter. Taking her out to dinner after I turn it in. I think we both win!

It's fall! my neighbor partied until 3 am, but I have a large box of cheese crackers and haven't checked the headlines today. Real mixed bag over here.

Editors! Tell me of your hatred of judicious block quotations. Why? Why must they all be absorbed into a paragraph?

lazy mornings 10 years ago: call the nearby bodega, eat for cheap. now: get routed through a delivery app, pop eyeballs out of face cartoon-style at the stated price, reopen the fridge, blinking slowly.

The economist fabulating accounts out of "History Facts" (tm) reminds me of the working paper that argued Britain cared about health care in the Caribbean after slavery
