Assistant professors in humanities (even at an Ivy League school) don't make much money.

There is no demand for Humanities professors. Look at the job boards of the colleges and most of them are hiring either science, math or nursing professors.

Also this person seems to have studied a fringe subject that would have a far weaker demand.
