Update

~ Clarissa

My college unanimously recommended me for tenure. Which is not that shocking if you’ve seen my CV. Of course, there are 5 more stages the process has to go through.

In other news, N gave me an hourglass for the wedding anniversary. I’m obsessed with hourglasses, in case you didn’t know. And I gave him a goblet handcrafted in the West Bank. And we went to a chic new restaurant here in town. We sat in front of this huge picture window and watched the snow. It is amazing how many times people who are in love can tell each other the same old story of how they met and hugely enjoy it. Everybody else would die of boredom a hundred times already.

  7. Yay congratulations 🙂 What are the next steps? I assume they have to send out your packet for external review, and then have other people who don’t know much (if anything) about the field but who have administration desks in neighboring buildings decide if the faculty of your college were right? Good luck 🙂

    1. Thank you but it’s seriously not such a big deal as I somehow managed to make it sound. I don’t have tenure yet. This was just one of the stages. And I wasn’t even nervous because if people look at my record of publications and don’t want to give me tenure, they are deranged.
