Welcome to the Brooklyn English Underground

The members of the Brooklyn English Underground teach in the English Department at a large university in New York City.

The purpose of the Brooklyn English Underground is to provide ourselves with a forum to expose the vomit-inspiring hypocrisy of our esteemed "colleagues" and to highlight the absolute lunacy of teaching in a university English department. We sincerely hope that it is not like this everywhere, though our hope is not high. Power being in short supply among our members, we resort to the anonymity of this blog in order to create an outlet for what we must keep bottled up behind our fake office smiles.

Posts to the blog will be of the "here's-what-I-wish-I-had-said" variety.

No, these are not our real names.
