I wrote about academic work culture for this month’s @Forbes column. Amidst all the piling on, I think it’s important to talk about some of the things universities can do right.

As universities adopt corporate norms, faculty face growing job insecurity. Here’s why that shift could harm education, equity, and academic freedom.

I’m so proud that @ASAnews was involved in this. Many sociologists research and teach about race and racism, and this injunction allows them to continue doing this important work.
In a big win for public schools, colleges, teachers and students, a court ruled today in our case to block the Trump administration from defunding schools nationwide that teach lessons with references to race or racism.
