一般说来,本系培养的经济学博士一开始都要到外校任教,之后才能返回母校任教。本系任教的教授中,本系培养的人越多,说明该系水平也越高,原因很简单,本系培养的经济学博士水平高,才会被母校挖回来。哈佛经济系水平是一流的,他培养的经济学博士水平不见得都高,但是能被哈佛经济系挖回来任教的,肯定是水平高的。因此,不能说哈佛经济系喜欢用本系培养的经济学博士,就是近亲繁殖。谁让哈佛经济系培养的博士水平高呢。
值得一提的是,哈佛大学经济系培养的博士,被哈佛大学经济系挖回来任教的,现在都是正教授或讲座教授。可见哈佛经济系用人不避嫌。其实,学术上的传承,最自然的就是老师传给自己的学生,哈佛经济系将自己培养的博士挖回来,其实就是为了学术上的传承,因为自己的学生自己最了解,再加上毕业后在外校的历练,回来后可以放心大胆使用。
