Things Glen Found Interesting<\/h3>\n

There are a few more links than nor\u00admal because I missed send\u00ading out last week\u00ads\u2019s email.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. North\u00adwest\u00adern Grad Stu\u00addent Sues Evanston Police; Dash\u00adcam Arrest Video Released<\/a> (Lau\u00adra Podes\u00adta, ABC Chica\u00adgo Eye\u00adwit\u00adness News): Lawrence is an alum\u00adnus of our min\u00adistry. This one hits close to home.<\/li>\n
  2. The Sex Bureau\u00adcra\u00adcy<\/a> (Jacob Gersen & Jean\u00adnie Suk Gersen, Chron\u00adi\u00adcle of High\u00ader Edu\u00adca\u00adtion): \u201cUnder the rubric of pre\u00advent\u00ading sex\u00adu\u00adal vio\u00adlence, col\u00adleges are now deep in the busi\u00adness of pro\u00advid\u00ading advice on sex and rela\u00adtion\u00adships. And they\u2019re not good at it.\u201d Even from a sec\u00adu\u00adlar per\u00adspec\u00adtive, col\u00adlege admin\u00adis\u00adtra\u00adtors are act\u00ading absurd\u00adly.<\/li>\n
  3. We\u2019re Liv\u00ading Through The First World Cyber\u00adwar \u2014 But Just Haven\u2019t Called It That<\/a> (Marin Belam, The Guardian): \u201cIt is impor\u00adtant to remem\u00adber that the inter\u00adnet orig\u00adi\u00adnal\u00adly came from defence research\u2026.. we are liv\u00ading through the first time it is being used in anger.\u201d<\/li>\n
  4. Putin\u2019s Real Long Game<\/a> (Mol\u00adly McK\u00adew, Politi\u00adco): \u201cWhat both admin\u00adis\u00adtra\u00adtions fail to real\u00adize is that the West is already at war, whether it wants to be or not\u2026. This war seeks, at home and abroad, to erode our val\u00adues, our democ\u00adra\u00adcy, and our insti\u00adtu\u00adtion\u00adal strength; to dilute our abil\u00adi\u00adty to sort fact from fic\u00adtion, or moral right from wrong; and to con\u00advince us to make deci\u00adsions against our own best inter\u00adests.\u201d<\/li>\n
  5. Sug\u00adar, Explained<\/span><\/a> (<\/span>Julia Bel\u00adluz and Javier Zarraci\u00adna, <\/span>Vox)<\/span>: \u201cThe back\u00adlash against sug\u00adar, and the sci\u00adence behind it, is a lot more com\u00adpli\u00adcat\u00aded than it seems.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. The Life And Death Of Evangelicalism\u2019s Lit\u00adtle Mag\u00ada\u00adzine<\/a> (John Schmalzbauer,Comment): this was extreme\u00adly inter\u00adest\u00ading to me, although prob\u00ada\u00adbly less so to many oth\u00aders.<\/li>\n
  7. When There\u2019s No Ther\u00ada\u00adpist, How Can The Depressed Find Help?<\/a> (Joanne Sil\u00adbern\u00ader, NPR): Dif\u00adfi\u00adcult to excerpt \u2014 very inter\u00adest\u00ading sto\u00adry.<\/li>\n
  8. Some\u00adtimes the Peo\u00adple Need to Call the Experts<\/span><\/a> (Tyler Cowen, Bloomberg View): There are some good insights here. My favorite line, though, was this: \u201cIt\u2019s a good rule of gov\u00ader\u00adnance that pol\u00adi\u00adcy can\u00adnot race too far ahead of the cit\u00adi\u00adzen\u00adry, and I don\u2019t view fac\u00adul\u00adty as a class of peo\u00adple well-suit\u00aded for that kind of humil\u00adi\u00adty.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  9. The Ide\u00ado\u00adlog\u00adi\u00adcal Rea\u00adsons Why Democ\u00adrats Have Neglect\u00aded Local Pol\u00adi\u00adtics<\/a> (Emma Green, The Atlantic): \u201cThe pro\u00adgres\u00adsive project is ulti\u00admate\u00adly about work\u00ading toward a soci\u00adety built on one uni\u00adfied vision of pol\u00adi\u00adcy and cul\u00adture, rather than a diverse array of poli\u00adcies and cul\u00adtures.\u201d<\/li>\n
  10. Intel\u00adlec\u00adtu\u00adals For Trump<\/a> (Kele\u00adfah San\u00adneh, New York\u00ader):  \u201cWe have grown accus\u00adtomed to hear\u00ading sto\u00adries about the lib\u00ader\u00adal bub\u00adble, but the real sto\u00adry of this year\u2019s elec\u00adtion was about the con\u00adser\u00adv\u00ada\u00adtive bub\u00adble: the results showed how sharply the pri\u00ador\u00adi\u00adties of the movement\u2019s lead\u00aders dif\u00adfered from those of their puta\u00adtive fol\u00adlow\u00aders.\u201d<\/li>\n
  11. Harvard\u2019s George J. Bor\u00adjas<\/a> (Robert Ver\u00adbruggen, The Amer\u00adi\u00adcan Con\u00adser\u00adv\u00ada\u00adtive): \u201cPer\u00adhaps odd\u00adly for some\u00adone who gained immense\u00adly from mov\u00ading from one coun\u00adtry to anoth\u00ader, Bor\u00adjas has spent much of his career try\u00ading to answer the ques\u00adtions of who los\u00ades from immi\u00adgra\u00adtion and how much.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
