Most incredible about this is that IU-Bloomington has long been the no. 1 university in the world for teaching Asian languages and cultures, with many programs found nowhere else.

They're slashing many of IU-B's most distinctive programs with zero thought or debate. They probably don't even know.

According to a 2021 report, the University of California system:

β€’ generated $82B in economic activity in California

β€’ supported 529K jobs in the state

β€’ generated $21 in economic output for every $1 received

Public divestment from higher ed makes no sense, even in the narrowest economic terms.

We'll keep pushing for freedom and justice for RΓΌmeysa and other scholars like her who've been targeted for exercising their First Amendment rights.

'We're citizens!': Oklahoma City family traumatized after ICE raids home, but they weren't suspects A woman says her family’s fresh start in Oklahoma turned into a nightmare after federal immigration agents raided their home, taking their phones, laptops, and life savings – even though they were …

Please highlight this story.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

I am Jewish.

I have spent literally my entire life on university campuses.

I was the child of two Jewish professors.

Since kindergarten I have spent exactly one year as neither a student nor a professor.

I have, on occasion, experienced antisemitism. But never on a university campus.

Stopping Excessive Market Power Before It Grows Into Monopoly The Robinson-Patman Act is mischaracterized as punishing low prices. It’s actually about preventing powerful monopolies that raise prices in the future.

New from me and at @maxmmiller.bsky.social in @theprospect.bsky.social on the Robinson-Patman Act.

Thank you to @ddayen.bsky.social for all his help getting this over the line!
