I'd like to believe that you're right, Turquoise, and that other people (most? many?) are more fortunate. I had started to wonder if I didn't know as much about the places I've been as I thought I did.
I'd certainly never seen anything like this, but I'd also never been anywhere undergoing this sort of transition. I made the choice to join an institution at this stage explicitly because I wanted the role I have, to be in a position to shape not only the path my department takes, but the school as well. I suppose really this is the price for that.
I'm sorry you perceived my response as a flame, Lime.
