The Boston Globe saw it fit to visit my alma mater, Brandeis University, to gauge their reaction to the election loss- and while those quoted weren’t quite as embarrassing as the characters the NYT found, it’s still pretty laughable, as the reporter pointed out that “the forum was dominated more by head-shaking and pep-talking than by policy analysis.”
Leading the discussion were the two biggest political celebrities on the ‘deis faculty- former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich, and Anita Hill, who now teaches law, social policy, and women's studies. Say, I wonder how Anita feels about Clarence Thomas maybe becoming chief justice? Strange that the Globe story doesn’t mention this, even though earlier it quotes Reich as predicting that Antonin Scalia will get the job.
Should be another long four years in Waltham. If Middle America is “Jesusland,” what do we call Brandeis? Mosesland?
