Details here. Coming on the heels of this, one wonders what is going on in the UK. Are we about to see a general cutback in support for the humanities, including philosophy? Or are these isolated events? The combination of an improved financial situation in British universities over the last decade, plus a weak dollar, an embarrassing domestic political scene in the US, and generous leave schemes in the UK had produced something of a reverse migration of academic talent, or at least less emigration to the US--that, in any case, has been my impression. But one imagines that cutbacks to postgraduate support and research leaves will take its toll.
