I say this every year, but: The uni students I'm teaching are thoughtful, intelligent, will make everything they encounter better. With a new addition for 2026: They deeply hate AI.

Parents insist their kids go to college to get business degrees. Administrators respond by defunding the humanities and social sciences, while hiring business profs at ~2X what historians get paid. Meanwhile, businesses say over and over that they want to hire humanities and social science majors.

When The U.S. Government Tried To Replace Migrant Farmworkers With High Schoolers
In 1964, a program that brought migrant Mexican laborers to the U.S. ended. So the U.S. recruited American students to pick crops instead. When they saw their living conditions, strikes ensued.

Been sacrificing folks since 1636 both on- & off-campus—all in the name & brand of the institution. As a mentor once lamented: your degrees & pubs won’t save you, only the community will. Commit to, don’t neglect them or you’ll perish. (Definitely discussed how you can publish & (not or) perish.)

If an obscure scientist in a tiny foreign land likes a No Kings post and flies to the U.S. 8 months later for a professional conference, they will be denied entry and detained. But if you assassinate a Democratic lawmaker in the Midwest, you can apparently disappear without a trace.

If you go to Buenos Aires, you see Argentina's premier university - UBA - split into campuses spread across the city. It can take an hour or more to go from, for example, the humanities campus to the law campus. On purpose, during the dictatorship, to keep academics fractured and disempowered.

Just found out that Berkeley is advising non-citizen employees to avoid travel and to essentially eliminate their social media presences. All of this is understandable, but it's heartbreaking and so frustrating that there doesn't seem to be anything that the university can do about it.
