From the Chronicle of Higher Ed. Or "the Chronicle" as we in the field call it. I love, though, that our news is centered around University life, and yet includes just about every aspect of real life, from commuting to the environment to food to business. The cover of the Chronicle this week says "Price of Gas Fuels Tough Choices for Adjuncts."
Probably an article about my future as an adjunct.
In any case, what you realize is that academics do, in fact, study the real world. And without them we wouldn't have measured perspectives on a variety of issues. Like the Minneapolis bridge collapse, which provides fodder for Thomas Fisher's new book Architectural Design and Ethics: Tools for Survival. Looks super interesting, and is filled with aerial shots of Minnesota to discuss design issues in our environmental planning.
