Keeping Together, Santa Fe. 🍻

Just a dog that I love (Cleo) in a state that I love (New Mexico).

Yeah. Glad you got up for 4:30 kick?

It’s how I recharge.

Sunsets in New Mexico never disappoint. This is my energy. I wasn’t born here, but I got here as fast as I could—to be reborn.

Introducing “Tough Love,” Doug Lederman’s New IHE Column Doug Lederman returns to Inside Higher Ed’s pages with a new column exploring why colleges need to adapt and what might happen if they don’t.

Funny how @douglederman.bsky.social asks, "So, did anything happen while I was gone?" which means he underestimated his influence and impact on those of us who remained behind in higher ed during his hiatus and who only thought (think?) of him as "away" but never "gone." It's good to have him back.

Hot diggity dog!

Back to work tomorrow, right?

This is your annual reminder that “Meet John Doe” is required new year’s watching. Comedy? Drama? Political satire? Oddly more relevant today than Capra ever could have imagined? You decide.

It streams free or at a very low cost on a dozen or more platforms.

How long before they’re asked to change their name back to Times New Roman?

Wow. That you have this collection and we get to see it like this is remarkable. Thank you.

Pearl is giving me this sinking feeling.

Why must New Mexico keep doing this to me? Every freaking night! 🌅

Beautiful day to vote, New Mexico!

Abiquiu Friday meetings here. Thank you, New Mexico.

We appreciate this welcome addition to our Southside neighborhood.

So my daughter invited me to a show last night and… #Beyonce

Update: this year’s lavender harvest has been spectacular.

Great and bold read from Jenn Frey in @nytimes.com. “This Is Who’s Really Driving the Decline in Interest in Liberal Arts Education.” www.nytimes.com/2025/07/17/o...

New patio at Able Baker Brewing in LAS is on brand and fantastic. 🍻

I figured Bluesky needed a Santa Fe sky tonight.

I can lose my mind over the proposed gutting of higher ed, or I can lose myself walking to the mailbox in Santa Fe.

Little Santa Fe rain tonight. #NewMexico

It was decidedly a Freezie Freeze Sunday at the midpoint of our ride. When in Santa Fe, do not miss it. 🍦 🤤

Thanks every day, #SantaFe.

Funny, no one offered me a free jet today, so I just kept doing my job without any undue influence or IOUs.
