Trump and his MAGA allies are already targeting the four major pillars of resistance to Trump during his first term.
As we prepare for Trump’s second regime, it’s important to do what we can to protect and fortify these four centers of opposition.
EXCEPTIONAL USE OF TIME & RESOURCES.
…and, all the information put into the goofy & inaccurate system is also duplicated & explained in the narratives, yes? So we do this twice? And, I image the BPC just uses the cover sheet to “count?” Where is the “easier for everyone” is? 🧠 🔪(BPC is my ultimate nightmare; I feel its cold shadow.)
…but Matt, what about the administrative assurance that all of this will be MUCH EASIER for EVERYONE than the former system of highlighting an updated syllabus & filling out a cover sheet that took between .5 and 1 hour? (Also what does this do to BPC workload?) 🧠 🔪
This is a Ponzi scheme. Fight the slop at every level. We all can make a difference! I threw a fit at our last dept meeting and shamed everyone there. Dept policy is now NO AI unless students are studying AI usage as part of their dissertations. If everyone did this, we can fight it.
Beautiful!

“If this webwork of literary allusion and nesting-doll narratives sounds overdetermined that’s because it is—somewhat.”
