So this chart, which I made using the numbers in S. Mintz' recent Inside Higher Ed. piece (link and original source below) on the change in permanent faculty for 14 history departments is catastrophic.
We, as a field, as a discipline, should be discussing almost nothing else. 1/

Congratulations! That sounds really exciting.
I'm excited to finally share some news: I’ve resigned my position on the NYU faculty and started working full time as Vice President of Information Design at @nomic_ai, a startup helping people explore, visualize, and interact with massive vector datasets in their browser.

As of midnight tonight we are on strike 332/365.
91% were forced to vote YES for a strike.
It did not have to be this way.
We hate to do this. It is breaking our hearts.

REPORTER: Is this unfair to people who paid their student loans or chose not to take out loans?
BIDEN: Is it fair to people who, in fact, do not own multi-billion-dollar businesses if they see one of these guys getting all the tax breaks? Is that fair? What do you think?
