The administration has just announced they are reducing NIH indirect rates. If you are an undergrad, you may not think this affects you, but about half the $92 million of NIH grants that came in last year went to running the university. This is basically like shooting a $30 million hole in the university budget.

It isn't like the state is going to make that up, and so it is likely to show up in your tuition bill.

In previous incarnations of this course, we had a major writing assignment that traced one element of the internet and politics or culture, and engaged in a kind of forecasting. I will do the same at the end of the semester.

In my circled, not surprisingly, there is much talk about the future of the university. A number of events have occurred over the last year or two that have further affected this--the Plague, of course, but many other innovations in tech and higher education.
