[EX Q]: 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:

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Hilary Rosen ? CNN guest commentator  Hilary Rosen  is on the hot seat after  she  publicly and baselessly panned a Georgetown University sports fan as anti-Semitic — because he was wearing a bacon suit during his school’s recent basketball game against Syracuse University.
“Hey  it’s ‘bacon man.’ It’s actually Mr. Bakan — pronounced ‘bacon.’ Just a fun costume ” Bakan tweeted at  Rosen .
 Rosen  tried to save her own bacon by claiming she was given some bad intel.
 Rosen  never clarified what “bad info” she got about the legendary ‘Cuse-Georgetown rivalry or how it had to do with Judaism.

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity June Trump ? The move led to the appointment of a special counsel in May 2017  a development that continues to infuriate the President. While  Trump  often directed that anger at Sessions  by June  he  turned  his  ire to Mueller and wanted the special counsel fired  a source confirmed to CNN after it was first reported in The New York Times. White House counsel Don McGahn refused to order the Justice Department to fire Mueller  the source said  because he disagreed with the President's reasoning.
 Trump  appeared in good spirits Friday morning as  he  prepared to deliver remarks in Davos  a source who spent time with  Trump  behind the scenes said. There was no sign that  he  was perturbed by reports about  his  move to fire Mueller  this person said  and  Trump  didn't bring up the topic.
But ever since a special counsel was named  the President's frustrations have continued to simmer.  Trump  has come to view Rosenstein as one-in-the-same as Mueller -- another government official who is out to get the President  one source said.
Sources described  Trump 's frustration with Rosenstein as largely bluster.
In explaining his urge to fire Mueller  The Times  citing two people  said the President said there was a conflict of interest based on Mueller's dispute with one of his golf clubs over fees  the fact that Mueller worked at  the same law firm that was representing Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner   and that Mueller interviewed for the FBI director position the day before he was named special counsel. A source tells CNN another reason  Trump  wanted to fire Mueller was  his  perception that Mueller was close friends with Comey. The two men are professional acquaintances.
As for McGahn   he  was already prone to becoming frustrated with the President and had threatened to quit over different issues  including  Trump 's choice of lawyers to defend the President and White House  according to a source familiar with the situation. But the pressure in June to fire Mueller caused McGahn to tell others  he  would resign  and this time  he  packed up some of  his  belongings in boxes  according to two people familiar with the matter.
Before the news broke Thursday  those who have worked closely with McGahn in recent weeks said they believe  he 's committed to staying at the White House. But  his  fate could depend on how Trump reacts upon  his  return to Washington.
