Ragtime April 8, 2008

- Brown: “Swedish ‘moved much more powerfully into my own interests,’ said Arnold, who was already very familiar with the language. ‘I wouldn’t have become a Scandinavian literature scholar (otherwise).’ The two now often teach Swedish classes together. ‘It’s sort of a mom-and-pop operation.’”
- Cornell: Junot Diaz went here!
- Columbia: Batshit crazy Anthony Kelley writes another batshit column.
- Dartmouth: Prof’s wife’s trip to the Big House.
- Harvard: Zuckerberg to settle lawsuit; ConnectU founders to cry themselves to bed every night in their new McMansions.
- Penn: “The best part of living at home is the freedom; I feel like I’m not restricted by anything.” How about your parents, son?
- Princeton: Imagine! I once had one of these “coveted slots!”

Although I generally disagree with Kelley, I don’t think it’s fair to characterize this particular column as “batshit.” Many terrible things were said in comments on the Bwog.

How is what Kelley said “batshit”? Now the stuff on Bwog was batshit… I think it’s reasonable for Kelley to bring race into the equation, considering that people on Bwog were (seriously, not jokingly) saying things like, “Dear Columbia, Gentrify all of Harlem. Why worry about preserving black culture?”
