A federal judge granted the motion for a summary judgment on all counts in favor of the AHA, @acls1919.bsky.social, and @modernlanguage.bsky.social in our lawsuit to restore the NEH, ruling that the mass termination of grants was “unlawful, unconstitutional, ultra vires, and without legal effect." 🗃️

The @acls1919.bsky.social, AHA, & @modernlanguage.bsky.social filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to enjoin the unlawful dismantling of the NEH: "Congress believed NEH to be essential to the functioning of our democracy, & the public interest would be served by honoring that determination."

There were a lot of things that resonated with me in Kevin Dettmar's Chronicle column on support for department chairs. I especially like the idea of holding meetings of department chairs without a dean present. www.chronicle.com/article/ask-...
