But, since you've already decided, I'll hold my tongue (and you know how rare that is). You know we all wish you the best of luck! <br />RADAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939361183649544946.post-609245541859619042010-02-27T12:20:59.917-05:002010-02-27T12:20:59.917-05:00Teaching is not easy to begin with (I have a teach...Teaching is not easy to begin with (I have a teaching degree) and has so many time restraints -- it is not for the faint of heart. But when you love to teach(it's a gift, isn't it?), you put up with the bad to get to the good. Best of luck to you, and I have a feeling you'll come out just great.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441108568751750583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939361183649544946.post-1545256841001881922010-02-27T00:03:10.493-05:002010-02-27T00:03:10.493-05:00Same college I want to work at?

It's not them, it's the institution they are housed in. Proprietary schools have their own rules, and I am used to dealing with the state system. It will just take some getting used to, that's all.<br /><br />Rosie - yes ;-)<br /><br />Anonymous - I already said yes, and I keep my word.<br /><br />Sista G - I am rearranging my schedule at work to squeeze this in, along with my regular hours there. It will be a busy month. I need a drink just thinking about it. Unfortunately, there aren't many, many candidates for a thing like this. Educators in my field are few and far between. I've been in their shoes several times, and it's damn hard to find faculty, much less faculty with any experience. And I have boatloads of experience. So, I'd be a hot commodity if only there were more programs around.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10121410794715290579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939361183649544946.post-65355636112216782432010-02-26T16:53:35.097-05:002010-02-26T16:53:35.097-05:00I'd turn it down.I'd turn it down.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939361183649544946.post-30202059507819332782010-02-26T08:53:16.854-05:002010-02-26T08:53:16.854-05:00So do I call you Professor now?So do I call you Professor now?Rosie Hawthornehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01665045940767129770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6939361183649544946.post-83171498486598807042010-02-26T07:09:25.764-05:002010-02-26T07:09:25.764-05:00...congrats ...I would be miffed at the constraint......congrats ...I would be miffed at the constraints.
