.@JDVance: You changed your name three times because you kept getting caught raping children in the Ohio Valley. And I have witnesses who can and will testify against you on this. I cannot wait to put you in prison for the rest of your life you sick fuck.

The entire American media and left wing industrial complex has decided the most important issue today is that the Trump admin deported an MS-13 gang member (and illegal alien)

This time thru my “Religion and Social Capital” class I included @hahriehan ’s latest book Undivided, documenting a racial justice program at a Cincinnati megachurch. It worked really well with the curriculum (Bourdieu, Coleman, Putnam, Durkheim, Mauss and many others).

Another time through my “God and Money” course, and again a week teaching Michael Sandel’s What Money Can’t Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets. Some students love it; for some, it drives them crazy. I understand both responses.

I've read nothing like this before—a painfully honest piece about the cruelty and patriarchy of academia, viewed through the lens of a grieving wife. Lang Chen remembers the last days of husband @Xiaohong__Xu, a brilliant, beloved sociologist from China who passed away at age 45.

Welcome to faculty orientation! In 1984, two of your senior colleagues, now distinguished professors and the most well cited in your discipline, had a petty dispute. They have hated each other since. Your job as a new faculty member is to navigate the land mines. Good luck!
