UD has been pursuing a couple of new interests lately, but her interest in this blog and the issues – university and non-university – that have evolved as primary to it, remains as keen as ever. So does her gratitude to her readers – for the links you send her, and for the comments you contribute.

As usual, UD thanks her niece and longtime webmistress, Carolyn.

Yep.

… “The Cults of Chico,” is now up at Inside Higher Education.

My latest Inside Higher Education post.

… a reader, Chas, tells me his and other comments haven’t been appearing on the site. I have no idea why. I’ve told my webmistress about it. Meanwhile, apologies.
