Here is a random article. Notice how much history and political science this professor knows. Too many allegedly “interdisciplinary” people merely repeat clichés and have not two (or more) disciplines but none. It has been said that since I am interested in law and justice related issues I should merely begin writing about them. But … More More on interdisciplinarity
Student has gone on summer vacation to meet Mexico City. He is staying in an Air B and B. Student to Professor Zero, by e-mail: There is a towel on the toaster and on the coffeemaker in this apartment. Does this mean I am not to use them? I was hoping to have toast and … More Things you have to know as a Spanish professor
“Crítica parasitaria, crítica autónoma. La primera prolonga de algún modo la noción pragmático-burguesa del arte, que en su versión más radical lo considera un artículo accesorio y complementario, valioso como fuente de disfrute y como adorno para el salón o la conversación “culta”.

Raised with the idea that I would be incompetent for everything, including jobs like receptionist and shop girl, I chose something I definitely knew I could do. My idea was that if I could make tenure at a good … More Est-ce que je suis intéressée?
Now we are trying to Occupy every day, do things and enjoy them. My friend with a harder life, ostensibly, has an easier time with this as his goal is and always has been to teach foreign languages.
