Epictetus is on the way!
Pretty confident-sounding rumor has Bernheim coming back to Stanford from Princeton.

The source is reliable. But everything can happen in academia, so let's say for now that it is a strong possibility.

I also heard about that from people at Chicago. I wouldn't mind them being wrong given I have a Yale admit...!

Maybe I am wrong. If so, I apologize. My source is quite reliable. But it was a pretty quick talk, so maybe I got him (my source) wrong. Let's wait and see.

But he is leaving. I don't know the final decision, but he will be either in Yale or in MIT next year almost surely.
