Seriously, I thought this would spur some sort of discussion of “perceived value” in prestige academia, but instead it’s just low effort comments saying “slammed”.

We can agree, at least, that they were indeed "slammed", with, dare I say it, a thunderous "boom".

I wish that good people didn't have to struggle against the bad people that find their way to power, even in our cherished institutions. But... that's just humans, I suppose. The corrupt and cruel will always seek power while the good ones won't.
