Individuals want the positions because of the prestige associated with the job, and as a resume builder, not to legitimately improve the campus community. If they wanted to legitimately improve the community, they need not have any title at all and having one is simply a formality with excessive overhead.

I was accepted, but I went elsewhere. In my first 2 months of grad school in a different city, there was a viral video about protestors at York being beaten by police. I think the protest was related to US politics, not the middleeast. But it terrified me. I protest, I believe in public assembly. I wouldn't want to get beaten by cops for standing up for my viewpoint. Right then, I developed the standpoint that York did not stand up for their students. Obviously, if the school called in the cops to deal with protestors, it was not and institution that stood for the freedom of ideas. I decided that I probably never want to go to York. That was in 2006. Since then, evidence building against York has been unbelievable. It's tolerance towards hate, is just the latest disgusting piece of the puzzle. I will never go to York. I will never let my children go to York. As a PhD student, I will never work at York. I would rather take on postdocs until employment at other institutions open. I wouldn't feel safe there, and it's not worth it. I had applied to graduate school at York. I was accepted, but I went elsewhere.
