Just another morning in academia, reading one of our excellent how-to manuals for global domination so I can radicalize my class on Monday.

looking for resources on how to write a good support letter for students heading to court. I know many faculty across the nation will be adding these to our LOR workflow...

Mom: Be careful at protests. Someone might be unstable and have a weapon.

Roopsi: You mean the cops?

I am about 30 minutes away from finishing this article due next week and collapsing in a giant pile of mush after the goings on of this week.

Didn’t have “calling former student who is now a lawyer to help get legal representation for students arrested because my university called the cops to campus” on my professor bingo card, but here we are.

Congratulations, Corinne Fowler! Just pre-ordered a U.S. copy (and an extra one for a friend who is going to love this).

A week that manages to combine both one of the highest highs and lowest lows of your professional life in the span of 48 hours is absolutely frazzling.

Tenured professors, moments like this are very reason tenure exists. Use it.

It bears repeating: it is unacceptable to respond to peaceful campus demonstrations with violent repression.

It was an honor to have Dr. Hyman on campus today — such brilliance, such kindness, such commitment to education that brought much light to this dark day on campus. Thank you. 🌦

Today we asked our president “are you prepared to be responsible for the death of a student?” - it’s not an idle question and we had swat w long guns on campus last night

The colleagues and students I’ve spent time with today have made me feel so grateful to be part of this community, in the face of true awfulness.

Just spent a half hour after the faculty & staff gathering sitting and talking with some of my students who were arrested. This is just absolutely unconscionable.

Proud to see so many faculty and staff colleagues out (~300) to stand up for our students and colleagues

Now up to ~300 faculty and staff out

Jeff Sharlet Dartmouth 🌲 Those cops were brutal to me. I promise I did absolutely nothing wrong. I was standing with a line of women faculty in the their 60s to 80s trying to protect our students. I have now been banned from the campus where I have taught for 34 years.

Dartmouth: Today at 12:30, faculty & staff gathering on the west side of the green.

Dartmouth American Association of University Professors chapter and individual faculty members are preparing to protest the college administration’s handling of the protests last night and communicating about them this morning. The administration’s messaging does not represent the entire community.
