Classics, German, and Religious Studies Under Attack at Pitt

They aren't crazy enough, of course, to attack philosophy, probably the best department at the university, but this broad-based attack on these humanities subjects is a bad sign, and certainly not in the interests of philosophy or students who want to study German or ancient philosophy.  There's a petition in support of Classics here and one in support of German here.
