I don't know how he does it but NC manages to make literally everything about him. He thinks the world revolves around him.
The people who work with him closely swear that eventually you just don't notice it. Or maybe you just see him in a better light? But he is incredibly grating.
Wacquant is on another level, but I would put Massey and Christakis ahead of Abbott.
Phenomenally self centered, all of them, but I think Abbott is less so then the others.
This is the key to the whole story about Yale and the Halloween email. The students (white and of color) hated NC for his self-regard.No he doesn't. You're a little snowflake crying because he wouldn't let himself be bullied by screaming entitlef blac undergrads.

The first talk I gave in grad school happened to be in my hometown, so my parents came to see me. The panel had a big audience and I was so excited.
We'd each been given 15 minutes. BW went first and spoke for 30. The chair, also a grad student, tried many times to get him to stop. He ignored her every time.
His talk was rambling and extremely dull. The audience left in droves.
I ended up with 8 minutes, a half-empty room, and no Q&A in the session.
