I’m inclined to agree with your analysis.

The one weird wrinkle in the story is the name change.

It just seems like you’re trying to cover something up. As your analysis suggests on first glance there isn’t much there in terms of Doctor Hawley’s supposed transgressions. Why move to a new name? Taking your husband’s name for professional purposes after being hitched for a bout a decade is unusual.

And, hey, isn’t taking your husbands name an endorsement of the anti-equity heteronormative, patriarchal culture that the Board’s equity warriors despise?

What will Biz say?!?!

As I understand it, she's reverting to her maiden name. There might be a nefarious reason for that or there might be a highly personal reason that has nothing to do with her professional life. I'm not inclined to pry.

That is not correct. Schoeffmann is the married name.
