      You mean graduate programs? In the US there are only that many, I think. Colorado/Fort Collins, New School, UMass/Amherst, UMKC and Utah. Riverside and Notre Dame are basically gone.

      So is Utah what? Not heterodox? That would be an exaggeration. It was never completely, and continues to be as it was. By the way, that's valid in almost all programs, since Amherst and Fort Collins and UMKC also have conventional faculty, I think. The New School doesn't, but it's really small.
