An examination of capitalism's influence on student affairs labor in higher education
This essay aims to uncover capitalism's influence over student affairs labor in higher education, by which is meant the labor of non-faculty, student-facing professionals on collegiate campuses globally. It contrasts with works foregrounding neoliberal analyses of the profession, which tend to show the impacts of neoliberal capitalism on student affairs labor in the present, disembodied from the whole of the capitalist system.

Le Ministère du futur devrait-il abolir l'exploration spatiale
Kim Stanley Robinson a toujours interrogé l'exploration spatiale comme moyen d'émancipation. Mais sur cette aventure extraterrestre, il est devenu de moins en moins optimiste au fil de ses livres.
