I wonder if his father is also "paying" to get h= is son to teach.  When I say "paying," I mean is his fat= her making a sizable contribution to the school, with the understa= nding that his son be allowed to teach. (Or is this guy that good = that he is indeed a qualified professor?)  In either case, as you = mentioned, this is pure politics, and there is not a hell of a lot you = can do about it. Mike said lay low. Alan mentioned that you should not = put up with it. I am recommending that you do that, too. As a form= of protest, tell the chair you no longer want to work for the sch= ool, as long as this adjunct is teaching there. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Wim </DIV></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
