“The point here is that diverse students (like our own past selves) will bring diverse interests to their educations, and those interests can usefully update and transform what we are doing.”
In the summer of 2020, I faced two challenges as I prepared to teach my course on Russian history to Peter the Great in the fall semester: first, the need to transform a course normally taught in a classroom into a virtual format during Covid-19, and second, the need to respond to growing protests about racial injustice during summer 2020. Now, my memory of teaching pre-Petrine Russia in fall 2020 will always be associated with the Covid-19 pandemic, the Black Lives Matter protests, and the storming of the US Capitol.

ASEEES and leaders of professional organizations condemn the 287 Russian university presidents that have made a public statement supporting Russia's assault on Ukraine.
The leadership of ASEEES, BASEES, and AATSEEL issues a joint statement of opposition to banning scholars based on citizenship.
