The Great Leap Forward was an extreme, ideologically driven experiment that subordinated evidence, expertise, and human welfare to political will. Its “leap” rhetoric masked unrealistic targets, suppressed feedback, and produced one of the 20th century’s worst man-made disasters.

"The university is trading its liberal arts identity for science"

Another excellent NT Daily story...

https://www.ntdaily.com/opinion/the-university-is-trading-its-liberal-arts-identity-for-science/article_fc76955c-d14d-4d20-bf9d-4d98939f29a7.html

Does the administration not realize that UT Dallas, a major techie commuter school, is just a few miles down the road, and that UNT will not be able to compete with them in tech? It seems to me the smart thing to do right now for UNT would be to double down on liberal arts to keep its distinct identity, especially as you're now hearing Altman and others talking about the value of liberal arts. Oh well.... by the time UNT admin figures this out they will have already completed gutting the liberal arts here. Oops!
