A college professor explains the real causes of a hotly debated phenomenon.

Its president ignored the warning signs about declining enrollment. Now WVU is deeply in debt, in thrall to market-worshipping consultants, and cutting a shocking number of programs and faculty.

Advanced Placement courses are no recipe for igniting the intellect beyond high school. They’re a recipe for extinguishing it.

Bari Weiss and other self-anointed defenders of free speech used the author’s stabbing to accuse the left of rhetorical excess—and ignored the very relevant scourge of book-banning by the American right.
