This is from their daily on-line report of Jan. 3: ALSO IN TODAY'S EDITION OF ACADEME TODAY 2 NEW TOPICS IN COLLOQUY: Can only white men be "dynamic" professors, and is it discriminatory for colleges to list "dynamic" teaching ability as a qualification in job advertisements? Do university presses employ too few minority editors? You can debate the issues on Academe Today. FYI, they explain: You may visit Academe Today as follows: * via the World-Wide Web, at http://chronicle.com * by telnetting to chronicle.com and entering "chronicle" as the login and password. - Allan Metcalf
