It's publication day for UNIVERSITY KEYWORDS. Across 27 sharp essays, the book offers a critical account of the political economy of US higher education, how it came to be structured this way, and how together we might build a better university together.

Academic authors, here's a peek into the black box of journal publishing from an journal editor if you can bear it:

Very proud to be able to share, via @dissentmag.bsky.social, Marshall Berman's essay "Sympathy for the Devil," about the Pentagon exorcism, The Rolling Stones, Faust, and the culture of the 1960s. It's been out of print for forty years, and it's a masterpiece www.dissentmagazine.org/online_artic...

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.
