This incident is isolated and sad. It should be noted, grieved over, then the real problem (besides the mentally unbalanced) is the absurdity of tenure. spanky On 2/16/10 11:27 AM, "Bloomberg, Robert" <xxxxxx@TUFTSMEDICALCENTER.ORG> wrote: You are both right.

First, this woman clearly had problems prior to the most recent tragedy and therefore the event is primarily an individual acting very poorly. Second, neither this nor the total of similar past events constitute anything close to statistically significant evidence that the pressures of academia, including special pressures facing women, lead people to murder their colleagues.
