Interversity Quotes"I think it's time to ask the Standardistos: Where's the test for compassion? For honesty? For curiosity? For moral commitment? Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |

I think the interpretations of some of the numbers are likely different than what Fisch thinks, or at least implies. One display says that 1 in 4 workers is at a job where they've been emloyed less than one year. I think his interpretation is that things are moving faster all the time. My interpretation is that there has been an explosion of shitty jobs that people can't stand except for short periods (fast food work, hospitality industry, retail sales, etc.).
