by Tim Hackman & Allison Jennings-Roche
Co-hosts Allison and Tim, two academics with nearly five decades in higher education between them, talk about the state of their beloved profession and the ways it often fails to live up to its promises and potential. Each episode, YKWFU explores a single issue in higher education -- from textbook schemes to student debt, austerity mindsets to banned books -- and gets to the core of student and educator frustrations. Why are things so effed up? And what can we do about it? Listen along and let’s talk about it! Have a question or episode suggestion? Let us know at [email protected]!

We're back with a second episode, and it's a heavy but important one. When major events happen, like terrorist attacks and war, suppression of political speech often follows through both official and unofficial means. What is the effect of that suppression on the culture of learning and inquiry that is supposed to be the heart of the higher educational enterprise? And will your co-hosts get canceled if we talk about it? Join us as we dig into this important topic, and send us your thoughts at [email protected]. Audio production and original theme music by Richard Sigwald. Check out his Soundcloud for more!
