Adventures in professoring, vol. 1

 




Now leaving on Track 6...









It was too good to last, obviously.  It looks like the Governor's School for the Humanities gravy train has left the station without me on board.  It has been a good experience, and has also (coincidentally, of course) been a steady source of summer income that I could count on every year.  Until Budget Cuts strike, and they have to make a choice about cutting a section of English Composition.  Perfectly understandable.  It came down to me and a colleague of mine:  one would be kept, one laid off.  Well, I did what I considered the right thing:  I conceded the choice to the senior colleague.  He has seniority, so it's only fair.  Sad to miss the opportunity, though.
