Alex Byne has been offered a position at the rapidly
improving Department of Philosophy at the University of Southern California. So now he
has to decide between Boston, Princeton,
and Los Angeles. Though I’d love to
have him nearby, Alex has been a crucial figure
in graduate education at MIT in the last decade, and I’m really pulling for my
Alma Mater to retain him (realizing full well that Alex’s chances of getting a
film cameo as a philosophy professor are slim to none if he stays in Boston).
