A Further Sign of Academic Idiocy

I proposed a guest speaker for this semester.  Our chair told me that I may not be able to extend the invitation.  The University is exploring the possibility of charging for the use of rooms.  I am reminded of Charles Davenant, one of the subjects of my new book, who wrote, “Everyone is on the scrape for himself, … each cheating, raking, and plundering what he can, and in a more profligate degree than ever was known.” Davenant 1701, pp. 300-301.  At least the restrooms are still free for the moment.
