I got a tenure track teaching job! It's in the Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics department at Wartburg College in Waverly, Iowa. It's a small, Luthern, liberal arts college with about 1800 students. There are 10 other professors in the department and I'll be teaching lots of different courses, but particularly the department's three statistics courses. There's lots of energy going toward student research at Wartburg and the flexibility to play lots of roles makes it a great place for me.
It's in a small town and that's just right for me. I am an uncomplicated man who doesn't need much to be entertained. Between the public library, the Internet and the great outdoors, I'm just not sure what would be missing there that I might enjoy about any other location. It'll be a great place for Rose to grow up, and tuition exchange with other colleges is part of the benefits package (when it comes to that). Lara and I are both very excited and are looking forward to 5 months of big changes.
Anyone want to buy a house in Carrboro?
