I am utterly shocked and saddened by the news of Andrew West‘s @babelstone.co.uk untimely passing. He was a huge inspiration, an impressive scholar, and a kind and generous person.

In this week's College Matters from The Chronicle, we spoke with Nicholas Confessore, a reporter at The New York Times and a staff writer at The New York Times Magazine, about one institution's decision to double down on DEI and later walk back some of its decisions. chroni.cl/4gFj3Ke
The Story Behind That U. of Michigan DEI Story
Part 2 of 2: Nicholas Confessore’s New York Times Magazine article on a $250-million diversity program galvanized debate and fueled criticism. How does he feel about that?

Have been pointing a lot of people recently to Carter Eckert's biography of Park Chung-hee to help contextualize the current moment in SK politics, and learned this morning that he's just passed away.
An incredibly generous person and brilliant scholar. May his memory be a blessing.

UM will no longer use diversity statements in faculty hiring, promotion, tenure
The provost's move was applauded by critics who have called the practice "litmus tests." Advocates said the process was "preordained" and dishonest.
