As a response to the corporatization of the university, nine scholars worked together to create spaces that fostered the possibility of collective dissensus. Using scholarly performative methods, we have sought to push back against the increasing corporate incursions into our institutions of higher learning—the over-valuing of money, measures, and metrics which encroach upon our capacity to think. This one-act ethnodrama below is one of our responses to the new corporatism of higher education. In the generation of this scholarly work, we have created the space and time to reconnect as colleagues and as scholars.
