WTF?

Tried to find 1984 and Brave New World at @gutenberg_org

Could not find both.

George Orwell is not listed in the search anymore.

I have downloaded both of them from there several years ago.

What the heck is going on?

If I have made a mistake in the search, let me know.

"We cannot keep conferring degrees on students who cannot do what the degree is supposed to certify. ... If we want literate citizens, we will have to rebuild the conditions for #literacy deliberately."

"There is a measurable, generational collapse in sustained reading and writing, and the academy is responding to it with improvisation and exhaustion rather than the structural overhaul it requires."

Hm. Administrators are responding with corporate nonsense; faculty are responding by #organizing #unions.
