a scholar:

He attended Swarthmore College, where he graduated magna cum laude with a degree in Greek and Latin, and then earned a Ph.D. in Classics from Princeton University. Conover’s dissertation at Princeton, which explored the ideology of bribery in ancient Athens, earned him the Porter Ogden Jacobus Fellowship, the university’s most prestigious honor, described as given only to students “whose work has displayed the highest scholarly excellence.”

no jerbs? how many tenure-track faculty jobs come available every year in the classics? how many go to white males?

even with that background, i bet he had no chance at a jerb at a respectable uni.

holy shit lede buried:

In an interview with Stuff, his mother, Pam Conover, said her son was “the kindest possible man who always took care of other people.” She recalled how, when she married her wife eight years ago, her son—who was also gay—got himself certified so he could conduct the marriage ceremony for his mother.
