Thanks for the congratulations, everyone! I'm just giddy with excitement!
Flavia -- Yeah, I'm very happy; it's a small college with a nice friendly vibe to it, and it's in a pretty, historic town, which makes me happy even though I know that isn't everything.
Bardiac -- I hope I live, too. That sounds like a nice modest ambition right now :)
Once you've settled down there (wherever exactly it is (you'll have to invent a name for that new place to use on this blog ("redbrick college"?)): would you be interested to pursue that old idea of a conference on "styles of teaching"?
Anyway: once again: congratulations, and best wishes!
hck -- I'm not sure I'll have time in the foreseeable future, unfortunately. The idea was yours, anyway, and it sounds like most of the relevant expertise is, too.
And I have decided that the new place will be called "Misnomer U."
What Now, dance, maude lebowski, phantomcranefly, and Lucky Jane -- Thanks!
Well: the person who's far better at writing about "styles of teaching" is definitely you: you are a great observer and a reporter with a sense of humour. Concerning "expertise": I don't know. I'm probably just older .... . Anyway: I'll consider this as "temporarily buried, with small but existent chances of revival".
Most importantly: Best wishes for lots of fun at "Misnomer U."!
Rock on! When we met at MLA, I really thought that you would definitely be someone who would land somewhere for the duration. While the wait could've been a little less agonizing to you, it paid off.
congrats!
