And every department had two or three positions open this year.delagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18197857250240640822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-45130467191982908102009-02-27T16:18:00.000-08:002009-02-27T16:18:00.000-08:00WOW!

Not a happy situation, but there's the (small) consolation that it's happening at every kind of U.Thoroughly Educatedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17606171535259466464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-73030075859365477222009-02-27T13:06:00.000-08:002009-02-27T13:06:00.000-08:00We're waiting to hear the word on whether our in-p...We're waiting to hear the word on whether our in-progress search and LTA rehire are going poof at the same time as the administration wants to start offering a full degree program in our major at a satellite campus with one full-time faculty member and a raft of adjuncts. Bring in the money but don't tell the students that they're not getting what they pay for when there aren't any professors to teach a fair chunk of the curriculum!Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14093558563358431804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-8290431044660280142009-02-27T09:22:00.000-08:002009-02-27T09:22:00.000-08:00I'm just waiting for my top-choice school to send ...I'm just waiting for my top-choice school to send me the same demoralizing information. They are having a budget meeting today and the hiring will either be approved or axed. I suppose that means I'll hear something for sure within the next week, but I am not optimistic. Fortunately, the school where I teach Shakespeare part-time wants me back for the fall. Of course, it doesn't pay enough to be worth it, but I'll do it anyway so I can keep my hat in the ring. Sigh. <BR/><BR/>I'm sorry that you and the other people involved had so much invested and that it's all gone down the tubes. It's terrible news for all involved.Fie upon this quiet life!https://www.blogger.com/profile/12047096700049201873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-71246606327629408842009-02-27T08:59:00.000-08:002009-02-27T08:59:00.000-08:00Good.
