Just for once, just for once in my life, I would like to see a panel or symposium or essay cluster on "the future of the university" (or its infinite variations) feature mostly scholars who have done a lot of teaching and admin and advising, and who have done it at schools that aren't super rich.

The first places in America where Black people had fair opportunities to work for the same pay and benefits as white Americans was the federal government. Still today, in places with high Black populations, many government employees are Black.
