        Wow. Wow. Are you going to tell the applicant that their reference is a horrible sexist and also not helping?

        Probably worth letting her know after you conclude the hiring process either way. Also: what a tremendous asshole that dude is.

        @MedillSchool the 75% of women studying in Medill deserve to know who this professor is.

        This is a man who should not be working in education. Or journalism. Or with women. Or other people.
