Finally heard about my Charlottesville flight, which was to have been on March 18. The person who needs to be scolded is never the one on the line. Student whose paper was due yesterday cries out this morning “What should I do?” The specific answer is, “Give this up and be a mother, which you’re probably good at..” You can’t say that. Our Dunning-Kruger administration does, among other things, make it an offense to speak truth to our students about where their virtues lie. We are failing them in every conceivable way. I feel like a rat leaving a sinking ship.
