Roger White (Phd, MIT), the newly tenured epistemologist at NYU, has accepted the tenured offer from MIT reported earlier. This is a coup for MIT, and a loss for NYU.
This marks an interesting change of behavior for the department of philosophy at MIT, which had a long-standing policy of not making offers to its own graduates. Until Agustin Rayo (Phd, MIT) was hired in 2005, George Boolos was the only MIT graduate to have been offered a position at MIT.
