Mark Fuller, Domestic Violence, and Privacy

In most of its details, the domestic-violence case of Mark Fuller was not all that unusual. One night in August, a woman called 911 from a hotel room in Atlanta, pleading for help, because a man was beating her. When the police arrived, Fuller’s wife, Kelli, opened the door. She had “visible lacerations to her mouth and forehead,” the police report said. During an argument in which she had accused her husband of infidelity, the report continued, she said that he “threw her to the ground and kicked her. Mrs. Fuller also stated she was dragged around the room and Mr. Fuller hit her in the mouth several times with his hands.” Fuller said that he had been defending himself from his wife after she threw a glass at him while he was watching TV.

L’avenir de Sciences-Po vu par Frédéric Mion ? Ni très numérique, ni très innovant ?

Drôles de propositions de Frédéric Mion pour sciences-po :

  • Le diplôme en trois ans est concurrencé par les « colleges » américains et leur pédagogie plus horizontale ? Rétablissons le grand oral et les épreuves scientifiques pour « renforcer » cette première étape.
  • Trop de filles réussissent le concours ? « Rebattons les cartes » pour qu’elles soient moins nombreuses.
  • Sciences-Po est présent dans toute la France ? Re-centralisons autour de Paris, c’est la mode.
  • Au-delà de la 3e année, il faut professionnaliser car c’est la seule façon de disposer d’une offre « claire ». Laissons la recherche fondamentale à Harvard, Stanford ou Columbia.

Et rien sur le numérique naturellement… ni sur les sciences cognitives, le DIY ou l’entrepreneuriat.
