Your state might have a similar rule in place, or your university might have a code you can borrow language from! If not I say just ban it outright as the prof and discuss the important of consent and privacy. And also making classrooms a safe space for expression. That’s what I focused on mostly.

I wrote one for my classroom - Ohio has a state rule that prohibits the recording of any classroom session without prior permission from the prof and consent from any student that might be recorded. I cited that and then added more details about what that means (transcript software, a/v recording)

That actually originates from Ezekiel! The exilic community needed a new theology that wasn’t “god only lives in the temple” since the temple had been destroyed. So they developed this winged chariot idea and boom. Religion as we know changes.

Couldn’t even muster a cogent thought about civilian death. We will remember this at the polls in 2027, Congressman. The full interview is here: www.newyorker.com/news/q-and-a...
An excerpt from Chotiner’s New Yorker interview with Greg Landsman. 


All I meant, Congressman, is we’re putting the war in the hands of two people, and I asked you if you think that they would care about a girl’s school being bombed, and you—

Yeah. I mean, but again, I would certainly hope. But the people who are making these decisions, the folks who are on the ground actually executing these decisions, I believe they do care. And yeah, they care. And yeah, they care

Dictionary of the Oldest Written Language–It Took 90 Years to Complete, and It’s Now Free Online
It took 90 years to complete. But, in 2011, scholars at the University of Chicago finally published a 21-volume dictionary of Akkadian, the language used in ancient Mesopotamia.

check out this absolutely terrifying ancient babylonian lullaby

What is the oldest lullaby or nursery rhyme that...
11 upvotes • 1 comment
As far as the earliest we know of, it's another Babylonian tablet, about 4000 years old and most often known as Little Baby in the Dark House. We don't have the music for it, but again, the BBC article has a good go at describing some commonalities of the music that tends to accompany lullabies, so that might inspire you.
The rough translation for that Babylonian lullaby, by the way, is:
Little Baby in the dark house
You have seen the sun rise
Why are you crying?
Why are you screaming?
You have disturbed the house god.
'Who has disturbed me?' says the house god.
'It is the baby who has disturbed you!
'Who scared me?' says the house god.
'The baby has disturbed you, the baby has scared you, making noises like a drunkard who cannot sit still on his stool.
He has disturbed your sleep!
'Call the baby now, says the house god.
