virtually every sector of the economy has 'excess staff;' it is not confined to higher ed. It's the obvious conclusion of decades of automation not being realized as less working hours, but in the dilution of responsibilities

I should concede that my views of Lacan were heavily shaped by Zizek who kind of leans too heavily on him in hindsight. Lacan is still one of my favorite voices of thought because he doesn't allow any ambiguity, everything is nicely bu
