University of Michigan Halts New Grading Plan After Backlash From Critics
The program was intended to address what the university called a “mental health crisis.” But the plan was met with criticism that it was coddling students.

It’s great. But it also proposes a massive restructuring and coordination of academic labor that very few institutions have the resources, capacity, or will to pursue.

I appreciate and welcome this move (and am bummed my nephew who’s about to start at UM will miss it)— but I’m curious if there will be additional instructional resources provided to faculty to help facilitate feedback? The structure proposed sounds like hiding grades from students…

Self-proclaimed radical historian Mike Wallace shared a Pulitzer for "Gotham," about 19th century NYC. “For all the big bankers and corporate executives’ putative love of free markets,” he said, “real capitalists of that era thought competition is lunatic." 🎁🔗 www.nytimes.com/2026/07/05/b...

CUNY Graduate Center Provost Joel Christensen @sentantiq.bsky.social on @thegraduatecenter.bsky.social’s approach to AI, which “center[s] human ways of thinking and being . . . emphasiz[ing] collaborative development rather than compliance and punitive approaches.”
Image of text reading: “We are interested in developing guidelines that reflect our values and institutional mission, that could help us continue to center human ways of thinking and being, and that would also emphasize collaborative development rather than compliance and punitive approaches.”
