[Air-L] Job Posting: Mediated Communication TT Position / University of Arkansas

[Sarah Ann Oates]

Well, let's please consider civility here and the fact that people often
find themselves working in political environments which they did not
create/endorse.
How would we have felt if someone had said, in response to a friendly
circulation of a job ad at our university, that no one "of quality" would
work for a public university in a country that would elect Trump?
We should support our colleagues in tough situations that are not of their
making and think about how educators are supporting democracy in
challenging times.
Sarah
