We have to keep up too said the man with the CIA badge to me and my fellow South Asian Studies grad students, as we took a step backwards. He was right but so were we. We are scholars, not spies, and the one should NEVER be confused with the other, lest our lives be endangered and our leaders be advised only by yes-men. Since 9/11/2001 this crucial distinction has become blurred, as our entire society, including obviously our police forces but less obviously our universities, has become militarized. We are scholars, not spies. Please ask your favorite professors if they have taken the vow to renounce intelligence work for non-lethal alternative service, lest our lives be endangered.
