Hi Joan, Thanks for posting, lots to discuss in this! I skimmed this morning and don't think I agree with much as far as the analysis goes (personally, I'd "blame" American culture and university administrators more than people in philosophy departments), but I appreciate that he's highlighting a terrible trend. I for one would love to know what other folks on the FEAST list think...
