Trump's War on Universities, with Nicholas Dirks

Skyrocketing costs of attendance, declining enrollment, the advent of artificial intelligence, campus debates about free speech, and a crackdown on diversity initiatives: Today's universities are in a pickle. Adding to this pickle are President Trump's threats and actions on slashing research funding — the financial lifeline of modern universities. Last month, the Chronicle of Higher Education highlighted a new survey of a diverse group of university presidents who were asked if they “believe the Trump Administration is at war with higher education” — and 94% answered they strongly agree.Luigi and Bethany speak to one academic leader with deep experience at the heart of these debates: Nicholas Dirks, former Chancellor of UC Berkeley (2013-2017) and author of the book, "City of Intellect: The Uses and Abuses of the University." Together, the three of them discuss which idea of the university is still valid in the 21st century, how fundraising changed the governance of higher education, and how universities might navigate the challenges of Trump's second administration.Revisit our previous episodes:Universities and Politics: Should They Mix? with Hanna GrayThe Economics of Student Protests

What's the value of a liberal arts education? It's become commonplace to hear Humanities degrees condemned as a waste of money, purportedly not readying students for the world of work. Author and literary critic Gayle Greene counters that they have never been more necessary — yet are disappearing from higher education.

Join us in our conversation with Maxximillian Seijo, ex-academic and former host of the Superstructure podcast and Money on the Left, as we unpack the perils of academia, the exploitation of graduate student labor, and the quest for novelty in the humanities.Together, we delve into the complexities of language proficiency in graduate school and its impact on teaching and reading. We also examine the structural identity crisis affecting universities, leading to the exploitation of academic labor, and the confusing incentives that contribute to this issue. Reflecting on the legacy of the medieval university, the German university of the 19th century, and the role of the humanities in modern society, we explore the purpose of education and the future of academic labor.As we discuss the geopolitical implications of the current academic model, we consider the potential impact of teaching the knowledge and skills learned in graduate school to everyday people, and how this could lead to a larger social project. Tune in as we navigate the complexities of university life and the contradictions that lie at its core, discovering the limitations of the humanities and how we can work toward a more stable and socially useful academic systemMaxximillian Seijo returns to talk about the problems with contemporary academic discourse. Abandon all hope ye who subscribe here.   Crew:Host: C.

Among the many things that set Thomas Jefferson University apart in the higher-education world is its approach of instilling the humanities – or Nexus Learning – across all undergraduate programs. This can be seen through the Hallmarks Program for General Education, Humanities and Health offerings for health sciences majors, and the JeffMD program. These skills are not only critical to employment success, but the backbone of a Nexus Learning approach bolstered by the merger between Jefferson and Philadelphia University. In this episode of The Nexus Podcast, we examine the history of Humanities education here (starting well before the merger), and examine visions for the future, including exciting new advancements across the Jefferson community.

What does reading, learning and contemplating have to do with living a good life? We talk about fortune telling, manifesting, humanism, philosophy, devotion, debate and different kinds of knowledge in early modern Europe. Was it better to be a scholar or lead a more active, practical life? This episode's examples are an English treatise in defence of women's education that encourages women to equip themselves with suitable knowledge to be useful to their husbands and children and a letter by an Italian philosopher about the joy of convivial academic discussion.

This episode of the Teaching Matters podcast accompanies our March-April 2021 series on internationalisation curated by Dr Omolabake (Labake) Fakunle as guest editor. Dr Fakunle is a Chancellor’s Fellow at the University of Edinburgh (UoE) and Coordinator of the MSc Education General Pathway at Moray House School of Education and Sport. In this episode, Dr Fakunle talks to Dr. Shari Sabeti, a Reader in Arts and Humanities Education at Moray House about her experience of working on an international academic collaboration project aimed at understanding Marshallese children’s experiences of displacement and belonging. They discuss the hidden narratives of international academic collaboration projects, what it takes to balance 'the doing' and 'the managing' of research, and what gets left behind in order for the publications, conference presentations and institutional data to happen. We hope you enjoy this important, practical, entertaining, and very human conversation that normalises the messiness of international collaboration projects...
