Lol, oh my sides! He got tenure when he was hired. Any you guys know it.
Not quite. The bar is lowered for diversity hires, but it still exists. If he really underperforms, one thing I’ve seen happen elsewhere is the diversity hire gets tenured anyway but is made a dean of something minority-related so as not to drag down the dept’s reputation.
Tweets and opeds won’t work. It’s a real university. Anyone else can claim that they also deserve tenure so it’s a legalistic nightmare.

Serious question: What is this all about? Why did he give a talk at Berkeley for an assistant professorship when he already has an assistant professorship at a better department?
I assumed that he gave a talk at Cal and Stanford in the same hiring cycle? Is he applying to places again?

Gave a talk at Cal last week.
People here are just petty.
I cannot imagine having groups target me by name on Facebook ads or the media. Of course it's wrong and Stanford just say something about it. They could even do a general public statement without having to name people by name. It's ridiculous that they don't. At least the political science department could do it. I mean, they put statements out there when it makes them look "nice" (like against this or that happening outside the university) but they don't do anything when it happens to people working there.
I cannot say I'm surprised.
