A must read

As I walk back into the classroom next week, I will thinking very carefully about this article and it's core message:

"In a society rife with theories and practices that flatten and shrink and chill the human subject, the humanist is the dissenter" (Leon Wieseltier)

Maybe I will teach this essay on the first day.
