#TIL that #EdsgerDijkstra taught at #UTAustin for fifteen years. He was there while I was a student there, and I might have sat in the same building as his office on multiple occasions, although I have no idea where his office actually was back then. Also, I'm not sure I knew who he was back then. XD
@dfloyd888, did you know this?

As the Austin Chronicle article notes, there are grounds to believe the School of Civic will suck resources out of existing institutions for research and teaching in the liberal arts at UT.
Don't be fooled by the pretense that this is merely about reviving study of "Great Books".
UT already has a center where undergraduates can undertake the study of core texts and ideas of the western tradition under the direction of a leading Straussian scholar, Tom Pangle:https://liberalarts.utexas.edu/coretexts/
I suspect that Rufo et al. are unhappy with this center because Pangle is an East Coast Straussian, not a West Coast Straussian; see this Jeet Heer article for the distinction between these two currents of Straussian thought:

Feel like this really settles the question of how much cops love beating up peaceful protesters.
This cop taking a selfie right before the go and stage a cop riot tells you all you need to know about their intentions.

Texas Tribune reporting 46 out of 57 arrested have been released and charges dropped!
Also making a lot of catty remarks about "outside" influence but as we just saw from the official UT Austin press release -anyone- can host an event practicing any protected 1A speech on the campus.
I wonder why there's so much scrutiny this time? 🤔

Another angle of Carlos from FOX7 being arrested has emerged: https://partyon.xyz/@nullagent/112328602106113667
The OP has a bio that says "I religiously devote myself to Texas Football" and his caption for this clip was "Guy with camera gets rko’d by police".
... I'm not going to lie, I had to google RKO and I'll be damned if Chris from Austin who loves football isn't right about this cop abuse!

On a hot, humid night with no moon, no competing outdoor lights, no wind, in a 600 acre nature reserve in mid-July, I should be seeing more insects at the blacklight than this. Disappointing.
