In an early #ManhattanProject success, #ThisDayInHistory in 1942 saw the first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction. #EnricoFermi built #ChicagoPile1 reactor underneath the west viewing stands of #StaggField at #UniversityOfChicago, risking disaster in a densely populated area.

the crisis in which the University of Chicago is now engulfed -- one entirely of its own making, and which has led to the (hopefully temporary) suspension of admissions into numerous PhD programs in the humanities -- represents I think a seismic event in the history of American higher education

Conservative ideology was undermining US higher education when Trump was just another obnoxious real estate guy in NYC.

The Crisis of the University Started Long Before Trump
The University of Chicago is in crisis. Under extraordinary financial strain, it has diminished its faculty-student ratio and hired hundreds of “lecturers”: teachers whom it pays little and whom it does not expect to do research.

When even the University of Chicago "suspends" its ancient languages, we're no longer talking about a marginal crisis, but rather an assertive collapse of the university's humanist foundation. The cultural attack advances masked under budgetary guise.

Prob similar changes at other schools too.

(Saw a flyer at a tiny, secluded children's park "Free AI class every Tuesday". Ugh.)

Wow. The University of Chicago, a world-class institution whose humanities faculty in the past has included Homi Bhabha & Lauren Berlant & Ralph Ellison & Hannah freaking Arendt, is getting rid of basically every graduate department involving the acknowledgment that other cultures & languages exist.
Quote from a story on changes at the U of Chicago that notes they are "pausing" doctoral eduction in Classics, Comp Lit, Germanic studies, Middle Eastern Studies, Romance languages and literatures, and South Asian Studies.

(above an image of Trump) BROWN JUST BECAME THE LATEST UNIVERSITY TO CAVE TO TRUMP. (next to an image of Trump) TO GET THEIR RESEARCH FUNDING BACK, BROWN AGREED TO: #1 Enforce locker rooms "strictly separated by sex" - using Trump's anti-trans executive orders, erasing trans and nonbinary students. #2 Ban trans athletes by redefining "male" and "female" under Trump's terms. #3 Hand over admissions and discrimination complaint data - giving the federal government surveillance access to internal records. #4 Run a government-approved "antisemitism" survey - a tactic used to target pro-Palestinian student speech. #5 Pay $50 million - the price tag for political obedience, dressed up as "workfoce development." (alongside images of Trump and Brown’s campus) THIS ISN'T ABOUT CIVIL RIGHTS. IT'S ABOUT CONTROL. And Brown isn't alone. Columbia and Penn already cut backroom deals. Harvard has started gutting DEl and LGBTQ+ offices and programs behind closed doors. THE MESSAGE FROM TRUMP IS CLEAR: COMPLY WITH OUR AGENDA, OR LOSE YOUR FUNDING. CAPITULATION TO AUTHORITARIANISM IS UNACCEPTABLE. YOU CAVE, WE CALL YOU OUT. YOU RESIST, WE STAND WITH YOU. If you're a student, alumni, parent, or faculty member - tell your school: NO DEALS. NO SURVEILLANCE. NO HATE.
