This weekend we dedicated the Franco Institute, a reimagined research institute at ND of which I am the founding director. Our mission is to fund great research, and to work both locally and beyond to make the case for the public good of the liberal arts. It’s a great time to be doing this work.

Thrilled to be reviewed in CI, and grateful to John Williams for his thoughtful and generous read of my book.

2/2 and look out for these next three titles, and more to come in 2025! Francisco Robles, Myka Tucker-Abramson, and Sara Kippur. It has been an amazing time to read books in this series, which I co-edit with Loren Glass.

1/2: I won’t be at MLA this year for the first time in years, but if you are, I hope you’ll check out the Post*45 books at the Stanford UP booth! We had three great titles come out in 2024, by Adrienne Brown, Adam Kelly, and Shane Boyle.
