<p>You’d think so, right? But I have known quite a few academics who have spent their * entire adult lives * at one school. And I mean their ENTIRE adult lives. Got their bachelor’s, then master’s, then PhD, then became an assistant professor there, then got tenure there, and so forth. There are a good number of Harvard professors who’ve been there basically since they were 18 and have never left. Happens at MIT also.</p>
