We (sort of) won! Hats off to the students who kept the peace despite provocation and the colleagues who negotiated without losing their cool. Wins: will partner with ; 10 scholarships for students from Gaza (OK, drop in the bucket); new MENA program, and more. @inquiline your ex-colleagues came through heroically. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/may/02/rutgers-university-of-minnesota-protest-agreement

This is good news, because it shows that Brown isn’t a unicorn. (OK, maybe Brown is a unicorn, but their solution can be replicated elsewhere.)

From an amoral admin perspective, this is so obviously the way to go—I hope we see more imitation.

This is hot garbage! And will hurt STEM people the most, especially because many STEM majors don't yet realize how crucial writing will be. Thanks for sharing.
