One day in the not too distant future, when the bubble bursts. every university administrator will always have been against this. But the institutions they destroyed to chase the AI fad took generations to build and will not be replaced.
"[admin]...who regard the...students of their own universities with such contempt as to be undeserving of the education that in many cases those administrators themselves, or their parents, or their children received...are an enemy of the educational enterprise"

One of the best cross-examinations I've heard started with: "Sir, can you describe what you're apologizing for?"

After the Bucks County sheriff election, one immigrant rights organizer told me: “I know ICE will still be here, but at least in our community we get some sense of peace. People haven’t wanted to go church, to concerts, to public events, because everybody is thinking they’re going to be taken.”

Hear me out: Senate minority leader Elizabeth Warren (to finish out Chuck Schumer’s term)
"If he had so little ability to distance himself from Jeffrey Epstein even after all that was publicly known about Epstein's sex offenses involving underage girls, then Summers cannot… teach a generation of students at Harvard or anywhere else." - @warren.senate.gov

The Bulwark, famously the place to go to find excuse making for Trump supporting business types.
To the Bulwark motherfuckers like @timmiller.bsky.social and @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social who make excuses for the "business-types" who voted for Trump: Yes, they DID sign up for this. Do you assholes not remember theses signs at the RNC. Business didn’t give a fuck, they were getting tax cuts.
