He was a professor with the title of Senior Lecturer.
Gotta wonder what his classes were actually like, though.
I would like to hear about his class also. I only read that one piece of “gossip” that fellow teachers thought he was lazy. I suppose if everything is handed to you without much work, you might tend to be lazy. This was the “gossip” that also included the University of Chicago was TOLD to hire him for his future resume enhancement. (politics). Judging by some of Barry’s behavior (lot’s of vacays and golf), IMHO the “gossip” may not just be “gossip”.
