Even though they didn't know about the case I'm impressed when someone unestablished can jump universities on a whimsy while others who have performed well during grad school/post-doc can't get a job. This guy should give a seminar on how to give search committees what they really want.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964719845369935777.post-54979037453413951852018-09-12T14:23:18.545-04:002018-09-12T14:23:18.545-04:00That's right.

In the first example, moving from Wisconsin to MIT is a gift, not something to get anxious about. The quote from the student was very naive, which was something like "You have to believe that our advisers have your best interests in mind". The third example, c'mon, so he got a PhD from a different university and became a prof. This article seemed to be the lite version of plans didn't work out. Try contacting someone who got fired by Sames for not being able to reproduce Sezen's results. Or better yet, contact Sezen. She got a PhD from a different university and became a prof. I'd love to read that!
