Worth a thousand words

How are things at The New School, folks ask (and we ask ourselves)? We're all trying to understand what's happening, who's deciding or will decide what and when. When everything is being "reorganized" at once, there are no fixed points to hold on to. Administration has announced faculty, staff and space usage must shrink by 20% but it feels like everything and everyone is at risk. 

So I was grateful and proud to find in the spring hard copy issue of the school newspaper, The New School Free Press, not only well-researched and written articles about our predicament but illustrations that perfectly capture how it feels to be caught in it.

Thank you Dove Williams, Jordan Fong and Zora Edelstein for expressing how much our attempts to figure out what's gone wrong and who's behind it are like something from a police procedural. And thank you Cecilia Yang for capturing how existential proposed and feared changes feel!
