Pwnallthethings: Gonna have to reform the curricula a bit. Conlaw is now part of American History. Soviet studies is run by the law school. Journalism is now a minor in sport studies. Computer science is run by the business school, contains no programming, and business majors are dualed with "creative fiction"

Does Admin Law get moved to the sociology or psychology departments?

After Loper, that might belong in History too

Sorry to disappoint, we don't do Soviet studies anymore. It is now part of the autocratic regimes subfield, and we are working on merging it with American Politics 101

I was thinking...

Just a quick FYI — We disbanded the English and Comms departments as well as their majors since the board decided AI should be the norm. Very excited to get rid of those troublemakers and divert the reclaimed funds. By our estimate the savings might just cover the fall varsity athletics banquet!

You joke but.... university presidents out here taking notes.

who here is joking

Conlaw could be in American History, or in the lit department under 'speculative fiction'.

Ehem

Con Law: 6 > 3. Class dismissed.

This made me laugh out loud, especially journalism as a minor for sport studies. And I thank you for it. I needed it.

Everything damned thing I ever taught HS students about checks and balances is utter garbage now. I have no idea how the material can even be presented now.

Fiction requires a) verisimilitude and b) completing your stories, but anyway all the arts departments got axed

STEM will have adjustments too: Biology is now taught by the Religion faculty, Math is now under PoliSci, and Climatology will be taught by the Surinamese Lit Professor, and we’re scheduling all the classes at night at the Ag Experiment Station seven hours away.

The geology dept was disbanded. No, I'm serious. My school got rid of the department.

That actually really sucks.

But visual arts and creative writing *are* now part of the computer science department and consist mainly of generative AI content creation.

Public speaking course I took in college and later business writing course were both extremely valuable in business. Most of my business fiction wasn't super creative, though "The next version will ship in THIS quarter and be THAT fast" did stretch the imagination a bit.

Going to really enjoy the Elon Musk lecture series on ethics.
