”Faculty Lounge” Edition: David and Laura discuss Temple strike and attacks on ed in Florida (no guest)
Welcome to our first "Faculty Lounge" episode of Office Hours. David and Laura hang out in the faculty lounge, microwave a couple frozen burritos, look in all the empty drawers for forks but find only Splenda packets, and manage to track down some expired powdered non-dairy creamer for our vending machine coffee. Then we get cozy in our lounge chairs and chat about the state of higher ed. The main topics covered are the continuing grad worker strike at Temple and the attacks on higher ed, including access to trans health care on college campuses, being spearheaded by Governor DeSantis.
Here are links to the articles we mention in our discussion:
