“As for his future in Madison, once his one-semester appointment expires in December, Barrett said he plans on applying for a tenure-track job at UW or at another Wisconsin university in the near future.
“‘After the public realizes I’m right,’ Barrett said, ‘my chances of getting a job will be better.’” (Kevin Barrett, quoted in The Badger Herald, August 8, 2006)
Assistant Professor of History, Univ. of Wisconsin, Madison: The department of history at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, the state’s flagship university, seeks a serial conspiracist to teach the history of Islam. Incapacity for discerning fact from fiction, gold from brass, sheep from goats a plus. Candidates should seek nationwide infamy and personal shame through espousing theories propounding actions that are, paradoxically, impossibly complex as historical acts, yet transparently simple-minded as explanations of historical events. Special consideration given to paranoids, college town groupies, and the rarely employed. The University of Wisconsin is an equal-opportunity institution that employs persons without regard to emotional maturity, erudition, common sense, or sharpness of noggin.
