It occurs to me that “interim” could also be a political move by Luck to circumvent the Stanford bureaucracy. Interim avoids the time and gate keepers of the “committee” process Stanford always insists on. If Reich has some success and looks like he’s turning us around it is simpler to remove the interim tag than to hope he’s the one the committee settles on in the first place.

In the big picture we seem serious and that is the most important thing.

RIGHT.  Luck called in a chit.  Paying $4 million for a one year deal.
