From the book's conclusion: "I hope we will more easily say what hurts, to ourselves and to each other and with each other, and do the work of figuring out together how to go on living while it hurts. I hope we can be gloriously and awfully unwell together."

As Dr. Khúc writes: "[T]he university renders students & faculty differentially unwell but effectively silos them from school other, leaving both ignorant of the other's unwellness. Accountability to the institution (and to meritocracy) requires us to refuse accountability to each other." (121-122)

As a disability/Mad justice advocate & teacher, I think about accessibility and care all the time. And I also regularly fail in both pursuits. This book pushed me to dive deeper into my higher ed investments & think about how they impact my engagement with my students.

"Dear Elia: Letters from the Asian American Abyss" is the best book I've read in years.
If you're an academic--especially one invested in pedagogy, accessibility, or mental health--I can't recommend it enough.

Something(s) I wish folks knew: Accessibility is not a "one and done" practice. Access needs change, and accessibility varies by context & disability. Also, lots of folks have invisible disabilities and/or don't disclose disabilities, so accessibility helps folks who you may not think are disabled!

Fordham sent no messages about mourning or loss, just a public safety alert about potential protests in NYC related to the "Israel-Gaza conflict." They just wanted us to know that NYPD would be all over both campuses. 🙄
