Who killed literature? NP but profs, in the classroom, with candlesticks and test

[Matthew Cissell]

WSJ trying to kill the Humanities (LIT., notice he doesnt say out with hist or philosophy) Still trying to get rid of the poets. this guy... What a slug.

That said, the HUmanities are in danger, we (those of us in the Hum or trying to get in) should think about that with every paper we write every conference we attend. This time of crisis shall pass but what will remain of the Humanities? Will we write of our own demise even as we orchestrate it?
