(Grammar note: gahd, I know! "They" is plainly plural, "it" is only suitable for inanimate objects and politicians- but I repeat myself- and the default unspecified pronoun in English is male. Surely there's another language we can rob to correct this.)
Honestly, I know the law school isn't really Berkeley, but I've been wtfing about that for years, and I'm not even an alumnus.

To be fair, Beserkeley hired Yoo years before he went to work for the Cheney administration and wrote up his "torture is OK if we say it's not torture" memos. Why they just gave him an endowed chair is quite the mystery -- perhaps he's an object lesson, and a warning, that lawyers can do a lot of evil shit without (too obviously) committing a crime. At least he's not teaching political science.
Stanford also takes on wingnut faculty and lecturers, by the way, but they have a special sandbox (the Hoover Institute) for them to play in.

That picture. Even in Sand Hill drag, he looks uncomfortable.
And helping to feed millions of hungry dogs.
At Stanford, probably not. Standards for getting in are very high - for <i>students</i>, at any rate. Faculty, obviousy, not so much.
So Stanford&#039;s young Reeps are learning everything he knows about campaigning for office? This is a good thing.
And if nothing else works out, become a consultant. (To a Republican campaign, closing the circle-jerk of life.)
