Human intelligence labs: New infrastructure for learning in the age of AI
"What happens to the distinctive intellectual experience offered by the residential college in the age of generative AI?…A thoughtful, multipronged institutional response is needed to preserve the value of the residential college, and to protect the teaching tools and strategies that serve our students well as learners. The creation of human intelligence labs would be a meaningful step in that direction," writes Karen Spira, assistant director of the Center for the Advancement of Teaching at Wake Forest University.

The Grounds retail village will create ‘third place’ for Winston-Salem community
While the first phase of The Grounds will include a student apartment complex and a 135,000-square-foot office building, developer Coleman Team said the 42,000-square-foot retail village will be the heartbeat of the $250 million mixed-use development in northwest Winston-Salem. Team said the development group uses the word "village" intentionally to emphasize that they are not building a traditional strip-mall shopping center. They want to create a community attraction and economic development driver in Winston-Salem and Forsyth County.

5 books that define America — for better and for worse
Moby-Dick wouldn't have its revival until the 1920s and '30s, when critics at Columbia University took it up. "Melville emerges as this voice speaking to the middle of the 20th century like a prophet," said English professor Jennifer Greiman and editor of Leviathan: A Journal of Melville Studies. Greiman argues that Moby-Dick's late adoption speaks to what is so American about it: the way it seems to have been written for a time that hasn't yet arrived. "It's that sense of it as a book that is speaking to something that's going to come in the future," Greiman said.

Mr. Trump is trying to federalize election laws, which are traditionally handled by the states, through the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote and a photo ID at the polls. “Presidents generally support state autonomy when this suits their policy goals, but they embrace federal authority when doing so aligns with their policy goals,” said politics professor John Dinan.

"The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on June 30 that West Virginia and Idaho did not violate the Constitution by preventing transgender students from joining female sports teams, and that states can restrict who participates on women’s and girls sports teams based on a student’s sex assigned at birth. This ruling, focused squarely on transgender students participating on single-sex sports teams, does not resolve other major questions that are important to trans rights," writes law professor Marie-Amelie George.

Microtransit fare hikes may hurt more than help
As agencies across the country look to microtransit to expand mobility in underserved areas while searching for ways to sustain the service amid shrinking federal support and rising operating costs, new research suggests that simply raising fares may do more harm than good. A study led by business professor Jia Li found that across-the-board fare increases in microtransit systems can significantly reduce ridership among occasional users while generating only modest revenue gains.

Hope, pride and skepticism shape Winston-Salem views as America marks 250 years
The Declaration of Independence played a key role in the country's transformation over its 250 years, said history professor Ben Coates. "In the beginning, it (the United States) is really this small, relatively weak nation," Coates said. "And then early on it was able to exert a lot of power in its immediate neighborhood, especially against the indigenous people who lived here, then becoming more of a regional power and in the 20th century becoming a global power."
