| Non-Emeritus Prominent Faculty who are 70 or Older by 2007 |
| 70 used to be the old mandatory retirement age, but, of course, any line is somewhat arbitrary, even if the basic demographic generalization—those in their 70s are far more likely to retire, get ill, or die than those in their 60s—is, alas, a sound one. |
