“I make no finding about the subjective good faith of the SLC members, both of whom are distinguished academics at one of this nation’s most prestigious institutions of higher learning.” - Delaware Vice Chancellor Strine
This statement seems to suggest that being a distinguished academic at a prestigious institution carries with it a presumption of subjective good faith and it comes from a pretty influential judge. Sometimes I think that people who are intensely focused on their profession pour all of their energy into it to redeem themselves of their otherwise flawed social selves. This would flip that presumption, particularly where the good faith in question, as in this case, is due to the “thickness’ of the social and institutional connections.”
