Leigh’s Reviews > Slow Professor: Challenging the Culture of Speed in the Academy > Status Update

It is frustrating how most all academic critiques of the university are fundamentally conservative. This book wants to "remember vital aspects of academic life which are in danger of becoming relics of the past." PLEASE, the "academic life" of the past was just as racist, hierarchical, and exploitative as it is now. Stop trying to save an ideal university that never existed. We need a NEW university, not the old one.
