Hi Rod,

Pano Kanelos here. Great to see you recently. This is exactly why we started the University of Austin. And I am delighted to announce that yesterday the State of Texas authorized us to become a four-year, degree-granting university. I would love to hire this guy. The exchange of ideas is the purpose of the university; the dominance of ideology is the death of the university. In these times of ambient nihilism, when everything seems to be falling apart, the only thing to do is to build. Build new institutions and infuse them joy, beauty, a passion for truth. Onwards!

“Hedonist experiential luxury resort”. This is an apt description of universities!
