UCSD retains Tolley in face of Chicago offer…and other offers outstanding

We noted in the Spring, that the University of Chicago was making a bid for Clinton Tolley (Kant, history of analytic philosophy, philosophy of logic and math) at the University of California, San Diego.  Tolley has now declined the offer, and will remain at UCSD.  With Tolley and Eric Watkins full-time, and Lucy Allais part-time, UCSD will continue to have one of the strongest Kant groups in the country.

In other offer news:  Chicago still has an offer outstanding to Matt Boyle (philosophy of mind and action, Kant, Hegel) at Harvard, while Harvard has senior offers outstanding to both A.J. Julius (ethics, political philosophy) at UCLA and Sharon Street (ethics, metaethics) at NYU.
