In global disaster movies, there’s always a scientist who’s like, WE HAVE TO ACT NOW OR PEOPLE WILL DIE and some government guy who’s like, YOU’RE BLOWING THIS OUT OF PROPORTION and I’m like, NO ONE WOULD REACT TO INFO LIKE THAT IN REAL LIFE.

My apologies to those movies.

And if it works, people will think we over-reacted.

We have to be willing to look like we over-reacted.

The IT folks helping classics faculty shift to online teaching should be referred to as Oedipus Techs.
