Misguided Academic

An academic or a scholar that still maintains their ability to think critically and form informed opinions on topics within their field without the indulgence of “the company line “ or narrative that is in the mainstream. Note: these opinions are still fact based.

I heard that my professor was a misguided academic because she has first hand expertise unlike Bob on Twitter.

Academic Triage

Studying one or two subjects in school more than others because of personal preference or just not caring about them.

academized

Disqualified for or discharged from a position in order to accommodate a locally educated peer.

There is no document trail. A graduate of the local school whose kid's best friend's mother is the team leader wanted Ellie's job and that was it; they academized her.
