President Joseph Biden has done a Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Whatever your contribution in life, wise leaders should know when to depart the stage and let the next generation pick up the torch. It's a genuine tragedy. #Debates2024

Last night, @uofg Senate, I spoke against the abolition of the BA Major in Spanish/Hispanic Studies. Most Senate resolutions pass w/ 95%+ support; my arguments reduced support for getting rid of Spanish to 50-51%. Plse RT if you support universities having Spanish programs!

Profoundly important piece by @arcattapan in the wake of the attack at Waterloo: "We cannot barricade ourselves within the ivory tower [...] Instead, we must continue to teach and learn and question and work towards a more just world."
