Four years ago, a close friend who burned out in a Wall Street job took his PhD and several years teaching experience to find a university job. He taught part time at a large university in the midwest…when a job opened on their faculty he applied and was interviewed, but not chosen.
When he checked back with a friend on the committee, he was told frankly, that his qualifications were amazing…but others on the committee feared he might be a Republican…and they could not have one of those on campus.
The job went to a leftist, critical theorist. A female, with no real experience, but she had a newly minted PhD in…critical theory…whatever that is.
My friend finally found a job in the South.
