CHAPTER 20: ACADEMIA CULPA: SYLLABUS AND COURSE OVERVIEW
from The Awful Shadow: Unblocking the Self / Unboxing Big-Box Academia
Season 2 opens with a fictional university course called Academia Culpa: The Fundamentals of Big-Box University Autocracy. Delivered like a deadpan syllabus reading, the episode slowly reveals itself as a satire of institutional power and academic gaslighting. Policy language becomes a weapon, and phrases like “collegiality” and “autonomy” start to glitch and unravel. Picking up where Season 1 left off—after grief, dismissal, and spiritual rupture—this episode shifts focus from personal fallout to the cold machinery that caused it.
