Recognition

Published by

Back in 2008, a certain large university rejected my application for an Assistant Professor position.

Today that same university tried to headhunt me for the job of the Dean of its College of Arts and Sciences. It’s the opposite of a job of my dreams, so I’m not interested but I do feel vindicated.

    My university hires a new Dean of Letters, Arts, and Social Sciences roughly every three months. You should apply here so we can hang out! If you get faculty retreat rights in our languages department you can stick around after spending a few months as Dean.

      You sure go through your Deans like Kleenex. Must feel nice …

    If it’s the university I think, I see poetic justice in your story.
