I know of a few cases. I haven't personally applied for any faculty positions for years. More commonly, faculty get heat after they are hired. If they do not yet have tenure, they may be in trouble.
Let me ask you, would an applicant with a science degree from a fundamentalist school (Liberty U, Oral Roberts, Bob Jones, Bryan, etc.) be treated any differently at agencies and companies you are familiar with?
Have you ever heard the word "fundamentalist" used to disparage a scientist or job candidate?
Have you ever heard the word "fundamentalist" used as an insult, like the N-word is used negatively toward blacks?
