It was never officially stated as such, but...it seems pretty obvious?
It really seems like something happened/changed along the way.
Of all the cast, it seems like he would have the most reason to be there as a guest instructor - he's an expert in a field that no one else gives a damn about.
I guess the biggest knock against it in-universe is that Starfleet's first responders still need him to Make Them Go.
Professor Stamets would be a sight to behold, second only to Professor Rayner.
I agree, but...legally speaking*, I think they have a decent case?

My best guess is that they consider her that radioactive.
I didn't expect Ceti Alpha VI to go "boom" quite so soon but here we are.
If anyone was still concerned that Khan would be somehow lionized by this series, his immediate decision to attack the crashed aliens should put that to rest.
Marla continues to be the most interesting character, trying to be the voice of Starfleet in the situation.
The framing story is beginning to get more interesting, as well, continuing to explore what the heck caused Ceti Alpha VI to explode in the first place.
Pour one out for the Argos - I feel like they didn't get a fair shake this year.
It will be very interesting to see how the Bombers fare coming off the bye - the Elks have improved a fair amount as the season progressed.
Unfortunately not - and it's a damn shame, since I agree that it's one of the better ships-of-the-week. Maybe some day...
The way they've been talking, it sounds like they're playing with the idea that Kirk seemed pretty comfortable on the Enterprise in his first episodes, so there may be unseen stories to be told before TOS season one.
I think we're good to go now, albeit possibly still catching up.
There's really any number of benign possibilities. It's just...odd.
I haven't seen "The Residence", but I think I heard it was decent.
