Mason’s teaching career was wide-ranging. He taught at Pomona College in Claremont, California, and the University of California, Berkeley, before being hired by the newly established University of California, Irvine, in 19w67. In 1974, he left Irvine to replace Susan Peterson at Hunter College in New York.
