π£Exciting opportunity to contribute to the SHS and be part of the team!
Keen to answer any questions that people might have, and support your nominationβ¨
Fantastic, rather heart-breaking piece.
'It can be a radical position simply to repair what is broken and to preserve what is valuable from crude financialisaton or elite indifference, rather than to reimagine it wholesale.'
Thank you so much for this - I really appreciate it, so helpful! I am also struggling with those words but thanks so much for the rest!

I think it begins 'Dearest Mama', and there's 'I could not account for it' in the middle, but I'm struggling with the rest - any thoughts massively appreciated

I have taken
the resources
that were in
the budget
and which

saving
for higher education
Forgive me

to feed the AI bubble
and to dismantle the humanities
no that's so real
