Again, no. Most people do not know that this is how most Title IX offices work or how Title 9 cases go, or how most rape and sexual assault investigations and cases go. These institutions are set up to protect themselves-not the victims-most people do not know that or think that.

Remember when we told you the athletics program was raking in cash and supporting our academic mission? That might not have been entirely true.

There are frustrating dynamics in queer communities that merit conversation, but it's hard to imagine anything good coming out of debates online or in the media right now. If only there were a place we could gather IRL and talk, maybe even have a drink, listen to some music...

I’m the book review editor for Academe and I love pitches.
Jeff Melnick@melnickjeffrey1Sep 22
Seconded. I reviewed this for Academe and was blown away by how fully it explained our own moment.

Two types of academic correspondence are “apologies for the delay but I’ll need more time” and “hey do you wanna do this thing with me three years from now”
