Boy, it sure is looking like a bad day for the "it's just another technology to be used well or poorly " crowd.

And the higher education leaders who have been cheerleading having it everywhere at all times? They too, have some explaining to do.

Excited to be in Philly tomorrow for an @ACHAHistory panel on "Catholics and the Second World War." It's an early one (8:30 AM!), but hope you'll consider hearing some new work on American Jesuits' framing of "Aquinas and the Founding Fathers" as the solution to totalitarianism.
