From: Aline Soules <[log in to unmask]> Date: Mon, 5 Jun 2017 21:56:29 -0700 Unfortunately, some of the journals on the list weren't predatory; yet, in some tenure cases, publications were discounted because the journal was on the list. If anyone picks up on this list again, I hope the first thing the person does is check on the status of every journal on the list. This affects people's work lives significantly.
