Another day, another Daily Links.

• All over the world, the Brown class of 2017 is getting the Big Envelope. Here they come!
• GET PUMPED! The National Digital Public Library is going live on April 18! 
• A math prof says STEMs should come to the defense of the embattled humanities because we're not so different after all. Seconded here, with an amendment: science is next.
• Several recent bits on politics in higher ed. In a much-publicized report, The Conservative National Association of Scholars slams Bowdoin for being unamerican. A somewhat less worried new book confirms faculty are left of center, but not that much, and it's okay. And a new scandal!: Liberal prof caught ranting on tape! (But he's not a prof, and that's what he's there to do).
