Yes!! I talked to fellow Portsmouth gal Amanda Page on Ep. 0 of the podcast, and we talked about this documentary. Now you can finally watch it too.

At its root, the fight at WVU is between a ruling class that is intent on destroying a public working class institution.

An element of academia which continues to floor me is that three people in a department can teach the same amount of classes, but one person makes 100k+, another makes 45k, and another makes 18k...and students have zero awareness of this difference.

I cannot tell you how much of my time reporting in West Virginia over the last year and a half+ has been spent watching people get cut off at crowded & emotional public hearings as they plead for services or resources not to be cut. The sense of déjà vu is getting to be a lot!

This quote needs more attention 👇🏻👇🏻 E. Gordon Gee has been profiting off of our Appalachian struggles for years, and is creating new Appalachian struggles that will bring detriment to our future. When will the rich stop exploiting us and our home?

It sucks that come tomorrow a pack of random lawyers and businessmen appointed by Jim Justice now get to decide whether our land grant institution implodes or not Most everyone who constitutes the actual university seems to be opposed.

For a more nuanced view of Appalachia and the Rust Belt, watch Amanda Page and @davidbernabo’s ‘Peerless City’, now on PBS, about Portsmouth, OH

New: WVU will lose additional employees, including librarians, as part of the ongoing work to reduce costs at the state’s flagship university. A librarian told me, "Reducing library employees is reducing access to materials." westvirginiawatch.com/2023/09/20/lib…

Women over 35 exist, stories about women over 35 should get more attention, can we also appreciate the fact that women over 35 can also be “emerging artists” 👏🏻

Watching the closure of the Gettysburg Review blow up, I'm struck again by higher ed institutions' failure to appreciate the value (or even meaning) of their outward-facing components. When most of your conversations are with Gretchen in the provost's office, you miss a lot.
