...experts. "Shame," says the reader who recognizes that Wallace fails to show an awareness of the 1966 Supreme Court ruling on Fanny Hill. The decision stated that a book offending community standards could be proscribed only if it was found to be "utterly without redeeming social value." Had Wallace let this fact into his fabrication, the case of The Seven Minutes would have lost nearly all the artificial relevance the author so strenuously pumped into it.

The faculty as an entity, let's not fool ourselves, is less interested in the pedagogical abilities of a prospective colleague than students are. I think the position could be defended that a given faculty search committee could well be less competent to judge that quality, which is so critical for the students, than students themselves...
