David Eisenbach
David Eisenbach CC '?? TC '?? MA '?? PhD '?? is a crazy professor who has hung around Columbia forever but seems to have no academic home. He's tangentially affiliated with the History Department, where he received his BA in modern European history and his PhD in American history, but is officially a "Core Lecturer". Consequently, he not only teaches history but Lit Hum, Contemporary Civilization, Music Hum, and classes on the media and Shakespeare. He also teaches at the Manhattan School of Music.
According to Bwog commenters, he is "the Paris Hilton of academia," someone who "will stop at nothing to receive attention".[1] His stunts have included ceaseless advocacy on behalf of longshot presidential candidate Mike Gravel, as well as wasting class time hosting an appearance by Obama Girl.
