“Members of Loyola University Chicago’s nontenure-track faculty staged a one-day strike Wednesday, frustrated that more than two years of negotiations have yet to produce the union’s first contract,” the Tribune reports.
“Instructors in the College of Arts and Sciences and the English Language Learning Program started picket lines Wednesday morning at the Rogers Park campus and held a rally in the afternoon to support efforts to secure better pay, health benefits and job security.”

After Loyola’s NCAA run, everyone seems to love Sister Jean, but she reportedly doesn’t share the love for union organizers at the university–and is absent in the current faculty strike. https://t.co/u4MlyDaQ43 pic.twitter.com/rEYkI3j0FX

The WP’s Debrief feature offers details, not “news” exactly, from behind the scenes. @wpjenna shows, not tells us, of a president unmoored. Helpless enablers. Bottomless insecurity, ignorance, indifference to fact and consequence. Frightening every time.https://t.co/rxjjEq8OeX

Two concepts for posts I’m abandoning: If Chicago’s Mayoral Candidates Had Running mates; If Rahm Emanuel Imposed Tariffs On Chicago Goods. Neither had comedic legs.
