An article appeared in The Chronicle of Higher Ed. last week comparing faculty environments to Fight Club. It's witty and critical.
About the author, we learn that "Adam Fulton is the pseudonym of an assistant professor at a university in the South." He could be right next door, couldn't he?
My response, appended to the article on the Chronicle website:
Faculty Club indeed. It should be no surprise that Tyler Durden is the sexy researcher and "the narrator" (Ed Norton) is the lowly teacher in this metaphor. Thank you "Adam Fulton," for ripping yourself away from your support groups and pulling back the veil for us. At first it was a frustrating experience, but I was humming "Where is My Mind" by the time your essay concluded.
That article was amazing disheartening. -frown-
