What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ted Cruz ? After previously withholding his endorsement , U.S. Sen. John Cornyn , R-Texas , said Sunday he 's supporting Ted Cruz for re-election in 2018 . 
While Cornyn made a pitch for the latest proposal , known as Graham-Cassidy , Cruz continued to assert he was undecided -- and was even more explicit at one point , saying Senate leaders still do n't have his vote . 
In a joint session with Cruz at the Texas Tribune Festival , Cornyn called the junior senator "enormously constructive" in the Senate and pledged to support him as he seeks a second term . 
Cornyn said he recently had breakfast with Cruz and they agreed it was important to set aside their differences -- mainly on tactics , not policy -- in the wake of Hurricane Harvey . 
"I think it 's really important , particularly in light of the challenges brought by this huge natural disaster , that we stand together as a Texas delegation and there 's no space between Sen. Cruz and me when it comes to doing work for our state ," Cornyn said . 
Cruz said Graham-Cassidy has some "very good elements" but does not do enough to lower health insurance premiums . 
The authors took the changes but removed them a day later , Cruz said . 
Cornyn had previously declined to endorse Cruz for re-election , saying he was "not going to get involved in any primary races , particularly with my colleagues in the Senate ." 
And Cruz refused to back Cornyn when he was seeking re-election in the 2014 primary . 
"Right now they do n't have my vote , and I do n't think they have Mike Lee 's either ," Cruz said . 
Watch Smith 's full interview with Cornyn and Cruz below . 
In 2018 , Cruz is facing a challenge from U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke , D-El Paso . 
Cruz has been generally tight-lipped about O'Rourke , but he went further than usual at the festival while responding to a question about his opponent . 
"I do n't think Texans want a far-left Democrat in the Senate ," Cruz said .

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Paula Marantz Cohen ? In a case of literary serendipity  right after I read Beck's piece  I stumbled onto an essay called "The Simplest Course I Ever Taught" in The Chronicle of Higher Education by Paula Marantz Cohen  dean of the Pennoni Honors College and professor of English at Drexel University.
 Cohen  describes  her  embrace of "slow teaching " an approach that designs a college course to "look closely â and by extension  slowly â at one major idea or text over the course of ten weeks."
Though the focus of  Cohen 's essay is a one-credit course  she  developed that "took the slow teaching approach to a new level" â  she  read aloud Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice to her students  and they discussed the plot and characters together â  she  explains that the honors program  she  heads offers a whole set of slow-taught courses. One of them focused on Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species  an indication that science as well as the humanities is involved.
A deliberate change on professors' part from trying "to cram in as much material as possible over the course of a term " Cohen suggests  brings benefits to the students. "I am convinced that key concepts and texts will adhere better to memory and understanding if their presentation is slowed down "  she  says in  her  essay.
Given what I wrote here last year about celebrating intellectual engagement on college campuses  it's no surprise that I'm convinced by  Cohen 's points. I'm not a skeptic about the slow-teaching approach.
Did  Cohen  have any thoughts on whether slow teaching would be as effective in the science as in the humanities?  She  replied  in part:

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Louis C K ? Comedian Louis C .  K  . is being accused of sexual misconduct by five women in a New York Times report . The premiere of  his  controversial new movie   " I Love You   Daddy  " has been cancelled and C .  K  . has not commented on the allegations . ( Nicki DeMarco / The Washington Post ) On Thursday afternoon   the New York Times released a story about sexual harassment allegations against comedian Louis C . K . Most big - name comedians have remained silent on the subject so far   but others in the entertainment industry are reacting   and let ’ s just say there isn ’ t a lot of shock over the accusations that the “ Louie ” creator allegedly masturbated in front of multiple women . Rumors about C . K . had been circulating for years   most explicitly in a Defamer story written in 2015 . So when the premiere of the comedian ’ s new movie   “ I Love You Daddy  ” was canceled along with an appearance on Stephen Colbert   something was clearly up . That something was the Times exposé with allegations from five women . We are   I am guessing   hours from all the Louis CK stories breaking and I will admit   this one   I ' ve been waiting for . — roxane gay (@ rgay ) November 9   2017 The silence from the men in comedy on Twitter right now speaks volumes # yesallmen # himtoo https :// t . co / 4Dnp2YbvYO — Sean L . McCarthy (@ thecomicscomic ) November 9   2017 As the article recounted   women in the comedy industry who were allegedly harassed by C .  K  . were open about what happened to them . And yet   people didn ’ t want to hear what they had to say . [ Louis C .  K  . accused of sexual misconduct in New York Times report ] “ Guys were backing away from us  ” Julia Wolov said in the story . Wolov alleges that   while at a comedy festival in 2002   she and a friend were invited to C . K .’ s hotel room   where he disrobed and masturbated in front of them . The next day   when the two women started telling other comedians what had happened   “ we could already feel the backlash .” Other women are chiming in with similar stories about being silenced . I was told to delete a tweet I wrote about Louis CK abusing women before I applied to a high - profile comedy job because the people conducting the hiring process might not like it . These women who have spoken up are brave   and we owe them so much . https :// t . co / yECc41l1Uz — Nicole Silverberg (@ nsilverberg ) November 9   2017 Jen Kirkman   who ’ s been linked to C . K . allegations for years — though insisted more recently that he never exposed himself to her — also weighed in . Though he apologized for his one time comment to me   I will no longer casually call Louie a friend . I can ' t support what I now KNOW are his contributions to the power dynamic in this business . — JEN KIRKMAN (@ JenKirkman ) November 9   2017 Even “ Parks and Recreation ” co - creator Michael Schur admitted that he knew about the rumors   but cast C . K . On Twitter   he expressed remorse over that decision . I don ' t remember when I heard the rumors about him . But I ' m sure it was before the last time he was on Parks and Rec . And I ' m sorry . — Ken Tremendous (@ KenTremendous ) November 9   2017 “ Seinfeld ” comedian Jason Alexander also delivered a Twitter PSA to other men in comedy . Gentlemen   comedy is often inappropriate . It is sometimes daring and audacious and shocking . But our behavior   in the real world   toward women – that doesn ’ t get a pass on inappropriate . — jason alexander (@ IJasonAlexander ) November 9   2017 Meanwhile   actor James Urbaniak dug up an old Q & A with Jon Stewart   in which an audience member asks why Stewart didn ’ t ask C . K . about harassment allegations on “ The Daily Show .” ( Stewart pleaded ignorance .) May 2016 : Jon Stewart is asked about the Louis CK accusations   then laughs at the questioner & makes fun of the internet ( 1 : 13 : 52 ). Quaint and enabling responses from a different time . And some other takes from writers and comedians : Much respect to @ TheRebeccaCorry   Dana Min Goodman   Julia Wolov & Abby Schachner for having the bravery to speak up about the abuses & crimes that happened to them . — Judah Friedlander (@ JudahWorldChamp ) November 9   2017 wow i guess nothing will ever surprise me again regarding men Louis C . K . – https :// t . co / brUoHJT78y — ROSIE (@ Rosie ) November 9   2017 it ' s so disappointing to say farewell to my comedic hero   louis ck   the guy who engineers his entire life around cramming the n - word into his overrated comedy routines . I was really rooting for him . — Mitra Jouhari (@ tweetrajouhari ) November 9   2017
