[School] Wake Forest University [Issue and Date] Had an AHA interview with them. 2 interviewers, a male and a female. The female was telegraphing...no, screaming...that she had absolutely 0 interest in me and was bored by having to sit through the interview. The male's idea of an "interview" was just to challenge in a d!ckish way. [This comment is on the history department]. (NB This is from 2011 but clearly relates to longer-term problems.) Slightly different experience: perfectly normal, even friendly AHA interview but easily the least professional and most unpleasant campus visit I've ever experienced. One senior faculty member refused to talk to me or even make eye contact (including at one of the dinners, when she seated herself opposite me, apparently so that she could avoid conversation more pointedly). After the interview I wrote the chair about this and was told I should be grateful that the faculty member in question had bothered to show up at all -- and that if her behavior bothered me I should get in touch directly to find out if anything was going on in her life that might explain it. Words cannot capture how poorly this place is run. Oh, and the tour included a stop at an outdoor shelter recently built "so that the students can get drunk on campus." I second the predictions above about retention. [Department]
