How do we work with our anger in ways that are non-addictive, non-violent and even fruitful?
We can’t skip the stages of grief, but we can be kind to ourselves and one another as we flow through them — sometimes in waves and loops.
Most of all, I am angry because this scandal is born out of a lie: that elite research universities offer the best undergraduate education and that selectivity is a valid measure of quality.
