exactly. Administrators blackmail faculty into hiring only in certain fields or from certain demographics. Departments have to choose between complying or slow death (departments that don’t hire shrink in size and eventually die as existing faculty retire). They have been openly trampling academic freedom for years now.

Makes perfecr sense. No issues at all. Except maybe the point that nobody who isnt English can know the first thing about any scholarship re Shakespeare. Obv.
