Sine Qua Non: Teaching Latin in Public School Secondary-turned academics are indispensable not merely for their banausic training and credentials. At their best, scholars of the humanities embody love of learning and wisdom over mere appearance and sophistry. Where institutions of learning tilt toward test-prep and job training, PhD-trained teachers must fight to keep alive a humanistic appreciation of learning for its own sake.

Today on AJR we begin a forum on the experience of academics who have chosen to teach in secondary education. Classicist Jonathan Warner kicks off the forum, "Secondary Scholarship," with his reflection on teaching Latin in a public high school. www.ancientjewreview.com/read/2026/1/...

Why I Talk to My Students Every Semester About Gender Bias in Teaching Evaluations Seeks to strengthen and enhance education in North American theological schools, colleges and universities.

This is so important. I’m grateful to Rev Dr Thomas for having these conversations.

A privilege to contribute to this issue. A different piece from what I'm used to, but enjoyable to write, w/ space to reflect on text, sociology, & experience.

Theology in Scotland Theology in Scotland is a journal of theology which is general in scope, but which is rooted in the Scottish theological tradition.

Afternoon all,

In the week we issued our latest edition, we would like to thank our outgoing editor @linatoth.bsky.social for choosing the theme and for her time during the handover to our new editor @drkatiecross.bsky.social. Congratulations to you both for seeing this edition come to fruition.
