Why wouldn't have they just made a joint conditional offer if they wanted MG?

Is that a real thing?

How would they do this? Add "if your husband leaves we revoke your tenure" to a contract?

So looks like NQ striked gold here?

Any update on this? I couldn't find much about the new program online. Is university lecturer no longer eligible for permanent residency ?

helpful post 1f3e. thanks

Well, considering Yale's inability to hold faculty, I wouldn't take a tenure denial from them as a strong signal.

If you gotta be an idiot if NW's faculty didn't considered the possibility of only getting NQ, even more when Golosov already had an offer from Chicago.

1f3e: Quick clarification - you have 3-3 load at ISI/IIT/IIM? That seems a stretch. When I was at DSE a long time ago, profs used to teach a part of a course half a year and another course agin partially (courses then were a year long, taught in half year modules) - say Partha Sen was teaching half of the second year advanced macro (the other half being taught by VN pandit and Ranen Das) and about 1/3 of the first year macro. And someone I know got around calling senior profs, etc. "Sir" by calling them "Prof so & so" - much more palatable perhaps.

The course load at ISI or DSE would still be 0.5-1.5 courses a semester. 1f3e must be at IIT or IIM.

Card is such a fraud. Why do so many take him seriously?

They're leftists who think his minimum wage study is the greatest research paper in economics history

He's very smart. I like the guy and don't think he's an "asshole."

He has engaged in some questionable research practices.

He is one of the biggest jerks in the profession. And that's really saying something.

Subtle UCLA troll

Top 15 ranking without Toronto in the top 10 is fake news.

He works with John List, he can't be that bad of a guy....

Whereas other recent studies in environmental philosophy have concentrated on expanding circles of similarity to extend rights outwards from what I call the Vitruvian Man model of essentialist normativity, Interspecies Politics goes beyond animals to investigate the biosemiotic intelligence, semiosis, and agency of the entire phylogenic rhizome of life, without privileging or hierarchizing a certain instantiation merely on the basis of anthropo-narcissism.

This means he wants rights for plants.

Because he studied important questions that other people didn't (the employment effects of minimum wages, for example) with (then) innovative methods. The reason that stuff like DiD etc. is so common these days is partially down to him. This is notwithstanding the fact that early/innovative papers in a field are often later found to be wrong.

Tell me objectively what insights has he produced beyond common sense and statistical jugglery.

Otherwise he is just another useless fraud. Period.
