Does anyone else bristle at this framing? WSJ says blue books are “torturing” students with hand cramps, and “nobody likes them.” Listen, students have been outsourcing everything to AI and cheating their way through college. Blue books should be celebrated as a return to authentic human learning.

Do you submit your handwritten articles to the editor?

No, but I sometimes handwrite an outline and I'm handwriting the first draft of my next book. In my view, the context matters. The purpose of an exam is to assess a student's knowledge. Blue books are an imperfect tool to assess what the student has learned/internalized that's not the output of AI
