AbstractThe levels of alienation and anger animating contemporary politics, the lack of commitment to democratic institutions, the distance ordinary citizens feel from government--all are issues of enduring danger and also form the ground on which actual enemies can act. How do institutions committed to the broadest liberal education of students respond to "democracy under siege"? The author suggests two things. First, to make clear policy preferences: support for DACA, opposition to deportations of undocumented students, belief in science and support of initiatives to address the climate crisis, increased access and lower fees for students, support for student voting and polling places on campuses, opposition to white supremacy and misogyny and expressions of hatred even while supporting free speech. Second, even if university and college leaders have to avoid institutional partisan expressions for any particular candidate they do not have to remain silent in their personal capacities. Faculty, staff, administrators, presidents, and chancellors can do far more this electoral season to make the election matter, to bring public urgency to the issues that matter to them individually.
