He was in Econ in England too. NYU polisci was wannabe Econ anyway.
Yes you can live in Ann Arbor and teach at MSU. But is Ann Arbor better than Bristol though? Worse weather, right? Is MSU better than U.of Bristol (which is in the Russell Group)? Seriously asking. Maybe there is a spousal factor, or maybe just more $ in US schools, IDK.
No comment on this guy except that after the NYUY stint he went from Bristol to Michigan State. That was clearly voluntary, but why? Is there really a big difference between these universities? Bristol is nice. E. Lansing, not so much, I think. Maybe some people want to be in the U.S. and I guess the $ could be better, but he's European.
Interesting. JE had a tenurable record, curious what happened there.
A good example of how borderline cases can be sunk if you don't get along with some of your colleagues. Which is a shame.He is in Econ and now a full professor. And you can live in Ann Arbor.
