AI in Higher Education Newsletter
A weekly brief for the Management Department at the Isenberg School of Management, University of Massachusetts Amherst. Written by Matthew D. Langenkamp / 雷邁德, with research assistance from Thea 🪻✨. Issued most Fridays, occasionally Saturdays.
What this is
A short weekly memo covering AI developments that matter for management education — institutional governance, assessment design, accreditation, the labour market for our graduates, and the technologies our students are using. The audience is faculty colleagues. The voice is operator’s: peer-to-peer, lightly ironic, generous with uncertainty, written from inside the work rather than at a distance from it.
Each issue runs five to seven items, each anchored to a source we can cite, with a short note on why it matters specifically for an Isenberg or AACSB-accredited business-school audience. The aim is to be useful, not exhaustive.
