  Respect - The Value of Others -...

  Respect is a foundational human value that extends beyond simple manners or etiquette. It embodies an acknowledgment of each person’s inherent dignity and worth, regardless of differences in background, beliefs, or experiences. Understanding respect involves recognizing the importance of empathy, fairness, and the willingness to honor the rights and contributions of others. It is a dynamic concept that evolves as societies grow more aware of the diversity and complexity of the human condition. 
  Historically, respect has been central to various cultural, philosophical, and religious traditions. In many ancient civilizations, respect was closely tied to honor and social hierarchy, where individuals were expected to show deference to elders, leaders, and those who possessed wisdom. Over time, however, the meaning of respect has broadened significantly. Modern interpretations emphasize equality, mutual recognition, and the importance of each individual’s unique journey. This evolution reflects a collective shift towards a more inclusive perspective, where every person is seen as deserving of respect simply by virtue of being human. 
  Empathy plays a crucial role in cultivating respect. By seeking to understand the experiences, struggles, and aspirations of others, individuals can overcome prejudices and foster an environment of understanding. This empathetic approach enables people to view interactions from perspectives other than their own, leading to more meaningful and supportive relationships. As empathy deepens, respect becomes a natural outcome of genuine human connection, transcending superficial differences and encouraging compassion in everyday interactions.

  Egyptian Revival - The Influence...

  Omar Khalil

  The fascination with Ancient Egypt has influenced architectural and artistic movements for centuries, culminating in what is known as the Egyptian Revival. This movement, characterized by its adaptation of ancient Egyptian motifs, emerged in response to rediscoveries of Egypt’s past. The revival gained traction during the 18th and 19th centuries, driven by archaeological discoveries, historical curiosity, and a growing appreciation for non-European artistic traditions. 
  One of the key moments that ignited interest in Ancient Egypt was Napoleon Bonaparte’s Egyptian campaign (1798–1801). This military expedition was not just an act of conquest but also a scientific endeavor that brought scholars, artists, and historians to document Egypt’s ancient ruins. The most significant outcome of this campaign was the publication of the “Description de l'Égypte,” a comprehensive collection of illustrations and studies that introduced Europe to the architectural grandeur of Egypt. The discovery of the Rosetta Stone in 1799 further fueled this fascination, as it eventually led to the deciphering of Egyptian hieroglyphics, allowing deeper insights into the civilization’s history and culture. 
  The widespread enthusiasm for Ancient Egypt in the early 19th century gave rise to what historians call “Egyptomania.” This cultural phenomenon influenced literature, fashion, decorative arts, and architecture. Egyptian imagery, including sphinxes, obelisks, and pyramidal forms, began to appear in European cityscapes. The influence was particularly noticeable in monumental architecture, where designers sought to capture the imposing and symbolic nature of ancient Egyptian structures. The fascination with Egypt was further fueled by colonial expansion, as European powers took a vested interest in the region’s antiquities.

  Campus Free Speech - A Pocket Guide

  Cass R. Sunstein

  • 0

  Free speech is indispensable on college campuses: allowing varied views and frank exchanges of opinion is a core component of the educational enterprise. But free speech does not mean a free-for-all. The First Amendment prohibits "abridging the freedom of speech," yet laws against perjury or bribery, for example, are still constitutional. In the same way, valuing freedom of speech does not stop a university from regulating speech when doing so is necessary for its educational mission. So where is the dividing line? How can we distinguish reasonable restrictions from impermissible infringement? 
   
   
   
  In this pragmatic, no-nonsense explainer, Cass Sunstein takes us through a wide range of scenarios involving students, professors, and administrators. He discusses why it's consistent with the First Amendment to punish students who shout down a speaker, but not those who chant offensive slogans; why a professor cannot be fired for writing a politically charged op-ed, yet a university might legitimately consider an applicant's political views when deciding whether to hire her. He explains why private universities are not legally bound by the First Amendment yet should, in most cases, look to follow it. And he addresses the thorny question of whether a university should officially take sides on public issues or deliberately keep the institution outside the fray.
