- >>"He returned to teaching at Harvard in 1945, but realized he would not gain tenure there..."
I am not sure how long Harvard has had its unprincipled position of hiring bright newly-minted PhDs, assigning them a ton of work, and then denying them tenure due to "insufficient published work"...It is my understanding that most tenured faculty does not earn tenure, but is hired into a tenured position.
Further, mention must be made of an even more grievous failing -- that of joining in the witch hunts of the McCarthy period, while giving lip service to academic freedom (see, e.g., the story of their shameful treatment of Ray Ginger). --Jose Ramos 07:14, 25 Jan 2004 (UTC)
