A quotation from Henry Commager
It is the function of the university to preserve what is best in the heritage of the past, and pass this on to the future; what other institution can do this so magisterially? Its function is to inflame the minds of the young with passion to serve society, and to train them for that service; what other institution does this? Its function is to inspire all its acolytes with a sense of the beauty and the dignity of the search for truth, and to make sure that this great task will never be neglected. Its function is to stand aside from its own society and its own time, to exalt those values that are universal and timeless. Its function is to push outward the bounds of knowledge — knowledge of the physical universe, and of the nature and history of man, and thus enable man to confront and perhaps even to triumph over those problems which crowd about him so pitilessly. No other institution can do this.Henry Steele Commager (1902-1998) American historian, writer, activist
Speech (1971-04-10), “The University and the Community of Learning,” Kent State University, Ohio

🐶🐱 #Cornell and #Washington #University researchers analyzed 2,800 skulls and found that #pugs and Persian #cats now resemble each other more than their wild ancestors due to human breeding preferences.
We unconsciously select for flat #faces and large eyes because these features trigger parental instincts, creating an example of convergent #evolution.

Last week, my academic-writing students and I discussed a student's sentence about Franca in N. K. Jemisin's short story "L'Alchimista": "The catholic metaphor of purgatory suggests that she is in a temporary state of suffering, rather than eternal damnation." I asked the students to drop "suggests that" and revise the
