• The Perverse and the Generic

  By Glenn Wallis. The Perverse Based on my personal observation, I think it’s generally fair to characterize the student-professor relationship in higher education as: perverted. I mean this in the sense of twisted, contorted, abnormal, corrupted. Picture an image in a hall of mirrors. That grotesque figure captures that of the generic person mutated into the institutional role-player. So,…

• How to Love Your Students

  By Glenn Wallis. Let’s create some contrast and tension at the outset and first say how not to love your students. Or, put otherwise, let’s say: How to Hate Your Students Hate: from Proto-Germanic hatis, to treat with hostility. That’s easy: lecture; grade; assign papers; offer the scantiest of feedback on assignments; break down the student’s “performance” into…

• Education Should Not Be Neutral

  By João França. Sometimes it seems like we can only talk about education in the positive, but Henry Giroux also gives a name to what we want to leave behind, and for that reason he talks about the “pedagogies of repression.” “Education is not just about empowering people, the practice of freedom, it’s also in some ways…

• Rogue Scholars

  By Joshua Ramey & Cleo Kearns Joshua Ramey: It seems to me that the situation we are in, as educators, is that like most people we are having a terrible time taking care of ourselves and taking care of each other, in really really basic ways.  The “crisis” of higher education is not really a…

• Assistant Professor in the #Humanities

  By Clelia O. Rodríguez. DESCRIPTION I, as a woman of color, am seeking for the opportunity to teach under the umbrella of the Humanities, broadly speaking. I am a promiscuous individual so preferably non-tenure track solicitors will be considered first. The idea of “for life” commitment is bad for my emotional health without having the…

• Why RED, Why Now?

  

  By E.D. The Radical Education Department organically grew out of our orchestrated direct action campaign, as Nova Resistance, against the over-funded and over-securitized lecture by racist eugenicist Charles Murray at Villanova University in the spring of 2017 (click here to read a recent post about this action). However, its roots, for some of us, stretch…
