Some institutions may have avoided the ire of the federal government by preemptively undermining research and teaching.

I’m on month 5 with American Tragedy, but took a month off. Not a challenging read at all—but 900 pages written in the 1920s, just makes me slow.

Journals that published Richard Lynn's racist 'research' articles should retract them
Richard Lynn's work has been repeatedly condemned for using flawed methodology and deceptively collated data to support racism. It's past time to retract the studies.

Sorry, I’m sure I sound abysmally negative in a celebratory moment, but it’s important to know that UC admin have fought us every step of the way as we attempted to stand up for our university. It’s become very clear to many of us that they view the values we cherish as impediments to their work.
