Very interesting (not that the other recent posts aren't also fascinating, they are). But I saw a Naropa professor read in Minneapolis last month, Ann Waldman, very cool and dynamic and utterly avant-garde and non-mainstream, and smart, and am meaning to write about her in some sort of venue, and so it is interesting to see the other cool things Naropa is doing...
