"Faculties," by @cathyndavidson.bsky.social & Jody Greene, is a call to action, a sourcebook, and a “how to” guide for academics who want to contribute to the administrative and educational decisions being made about the future of our institutions. Read the intro for free now: buff.ly/rx7fwx7

Cover of Faculties: A Dialogue on Inciting Constructive Change in Destructive Times by Cathy N. Davidson and Jody Greene. The cover has a deep purple background with bold white, orange, and pink fonts. The title dominates the center. The author's names are in overlapping speech bubbles on the top left. The subtitle is in orange letters below the title, bottom right. The title and subtitle appear again, hugging the right side of the cover and cut off.

Income isn’t supposed to play a role in how much housing assistance FEMA gives families. But in some North Carolina counties, the highest-income homeowners received two to three times as much money after Hurricane Helene as those with lower incomes. (Pub. Dec. 2025 w/ @theassemblync.bsky.social)

Arduous and Unequal: The Fight to Get FEMA Housing Assistance After Helene

An analysis by ProPublica and The Assembly of the more rural counties in North Carolina hardest hit by Helene shows that the households that got the most aid tended to have the highest incomes.

there is a cohort of men who resent the responsibilities and obligations of adulthood — of the fact that you owe things to other people. it is a fundamentally childish impulse that they have reconfigured as the height of masculinity, and i think it informs the parasocial attraction to platner.

What a great article not only on faculty workloads, but how little our salaries actually factor in to most university budgets. A few highlights. First, our salaries are falling:

Third, faculty salaries are falling even if we statistically control for faculty rank and institution. By our analysis of National Center for Education Statistics data, tenured and tenure-track salaries are down 10 percent in real terms since 2016 and are lower today than they were in 2002; nontenured faculty salaries are down 4 percent since 2016 and are at 2002 levels today.

To put this plainly: Suppose sharply increased teaching loads enabled institutions to cut one out of every seven full-time faculty. (That’s roughly what we saw last year in severe cuts announced at West Virginia, Western Illinois, and St. Cloud State Universities.) The associated savings in salary and benefits even through such drastic action would amount to less than 2.5 percent of total institutional expenditures for the typical university.

The upshot? If you think higher education has a cost problem, squeezing more teaching out of faculty is not the first place you should look.
