To be clear, the problem in the article is not quite the location per se (although the author tries to make it about that because it makes their position more defensible). The problem is that they were proposing to continue their research in the same university as their PhD. Which is generally considered not ideal.
If they wanted to work at another university in Minnesota it would have been fine.
- bruce511 3y agoI agree with your point. Assuming of course that there is another university, with the necessary requirements to support the proposed work, within commuting distance. I'm not that familiar with Minnesota, or the author's current city, or the preponderance of research universities in the state. (Setting the boundary as Minnesota though seems to cast the net quite wide.)
