Are you also still baffled by Trump's inauguration 🇺🇸, wondering what he will do next, how successful his policies will be and (frankly) why he is even there? Our new book "Understanding Political Economy: Capitalism, Democracy and Inequality", released today, can help with that! (Link below)

The last two terms I've really started to notice students using generative AI in their assignments—in ways both good and bad. Since all of us who teach should be thinking about this, I thought I'd share my own guidelines, maybe you find them useful. Feedback always welcome!
