We know the semester is over, but how cool is it that historian/cultural critic Greg Tate, a professor at Brown University, used two Syracusans as a reference for his course this Spring on Afro-futurism? Tate gives the Cuse an indirect shout-out by talking about singer Grace Jones and writer George S. Schuyler. And speaking of academics, we wonder how many students know that Schuyler’s papers are housed at Bird Library at Syracuse University (special collections).
