...pulled out of JV games to fill out Varsity practices. The JV women’s volleyball team and JV men’s soccer team have similarly full rosters. The fact that the Department sprung its offensive on all JV teams, not just the ones with the lowest participation levels, is suspicious, to say the least.

Without a tenured position, associate and assistant professors’ time at Harvard is capped at eight years. Review is usually only offered in the penultimate year of a tenure-track professor’s term. Even with the possibility of tenure review ahead, the long process and lack of a guarantee can lead restless professors to hop off the faculty roster early...
