This story in @nytimes, beginning with its headline, fails spectacularly to explain what is happening right now to universities all across this country. The conflicts over plans for the fall are warning signs of an epic crisis for higher ed. nytimes.com/2020/07/03/us/co…

This morning my husband found MbS's video game streaming account. It turns out they have the same favorite game.

Could we compare MbS's game stat trends to his political moves over the last three years he's played, and see if his potential for 'getting tilted' resulted in, say, political repercussions for rival states or dissidents around the same time? Something to consider. (6)

I am half-joking about that research idea, but only half. Anyway, MbS is a huge gamer, but he's also kinda mediocre. Also, his screenname (which I won't reveal) is hilarious and hints at an interest in anime. That is all. (7)

Let’s not waste this crisis. It’s a time to be innovative in transferring your classes to an online mode. Let’s prove technology can serve the greater good! Also, you have 48 hours. And, remember (1) we are watching and (2) all the materials you create are owned by the college.
