The movie reveals that he has not had an easy life in the world of doctrinal academic rewards. Every time he tries to enlighten and bring logic and truth to the academic world, he is punished with lesser teaching load and hence a diminished association with the school. This ultimately leads to his defeat by the president at DePaul Univesity blocking of tenure (Faculty overwhelmingly supported his tenure). This documentary exposes the power play that is very real in the academic world. One would believe that this only exists in the corporate sector of the economy, but future academic beware! To answer the question in the subject line that made you read this review, he was paid $18,000 for his teaching course load after finishing his PhD. From Princeton and teaching at Hunter college in NYC. The administration at this college reduced his teaching hours further effectively ending his academic life there. Make no mistake, we live in a doctrinal world where you need to know that if you don't follow a certain level of subservience to power, you will pay!?! Great documentary...watch it and make up your own mind and leave a review here.
He earned "HOW MUCH" as a teaching academic after graduating from Princeton?
