I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

New chalkbeat piece that highlights some of the less well-known realities of our current moment for higher ed. I got to chat at length with Matt about the actual trend in tuition (flat or decreasing at publics) versus the perception in the media.

Is college enrollment plummeting?
Reports of the death of the bachelor’s degree have been greatly exaggerated.

Dems do very well in VA. Win Gov by 14, AG by 5 (despite texting scandal), perhaps most impressive shift house of delegates from D 51-49 to D 64-36

Talk of NJ as swing state premature: Dem win Gov by nearly 13. Was supposed to be much closer

Surprise 2 PSC D wins in GA

IU’s decision to suspend the print publication of its student newspaper is costing the institution: Alumni are pulling donations in protest. The university ended the IDS’s print edition after firing the paper’s adviser.

Part of me suspects all this handwringing about not having the votes is performance. In the end, they’ll get the votes.

So White House construction companies:

ACECO (demolition): Deleted LinkedIn and Instagram profiles, took down their website with contact information entirely

Clark Construction (construction): Limiting Insta comments and hiding or deleting critical ones.

Do these companies think we'll all forget?
