Text of the page (random words):
s position and yes i know the software requiring you to upload documents is cumbersome but you may want to double check before you hit submit one candidate submitted hir cover letter 4 times instead of including hir cv for example you may want to update your reference letters fyi one candidate submitted letters that were all addressing a four year old job opening at an entirely different type of institution yes this one is a true oddity so i mention it only for kicks and giggles a cover letter written in the third person is very funny and truly bizarro i m curious what professional fields require or encourage cover letters written in the third person dear search committee candidate archie simpson is simply perfect for your college he has years of experience and an admirable education to boot let me tell you more about dr simpson in as much detail as possible and while you read this fascinating description of dr simpson imagine you are hearing a big booming radio personality voice reading it aloud to you believe me you will hire dr simpson after reading this letter it made me laugh at least posted in academic life tagged academic cover letters 12 comments the gym guy posted on february 22 2011 by annieem i know you re picturing a guy who s about 6 foot tall dark wavy hair high cheekbones or maybe dimples he s trying to hide his ass in those baggy basketball shorts but they only set it off nicely sculptured arms and abs long legs you might be picturing this guy or this guy the gym needs such guys if only to provide the necessary eye candy while i run tediously on the treadmill for 60 or 90 minutes trying to get the miles in each week the ice and snow more coming tonight outside prevent me from my usual river trail running so i greatly greatly appreciate these men but that s not the gym guy i m referring to i m referring to this guy no not really archie bunker but someone very much like him he s probably 70 something an ex baseball player really he was he s told me about his glory years many many times retired from some sort of business that allows him to travel to europe annually and to palm beach each winter for a few weeks let s call him bob well bob knows i m an english professor ah small town life so he loves to ask me grammar and word use questions today as i was nearing mile 7 5 on that damned treadmill sweating despite the ceiling fans he motions for me to take out my ear buds so he can ask me a question i usually try to snag a treadmill where the neighboring treadmills are already taken to avoid just this scenerio obviously it doesn t always work today s question bob s friend s answering machine yes answering machine clearly this crew isn t into the cell phone age yet has the following message and bob wants to tell him it s incorrect usage i can t answer your call right now could you please leave a message after the beep bob says that the word could implies that the caller is being asked whether or not they have the ability to leave a message bob wanted me to confirm that the friend should delete the word could of course wanting to get back to my boring treadmill and get to mile 9 already i confirmed his opinion as he knew i would and quickly replaced my earbuds and raised the volume on my ipod to avoid further discussion but people this happens regularly and it s quite annoying now to give bob credit he waited till i had run nearly 7 5 miles before finally begging me to hear his question though he had been trying to make eye contact for at least a few miles really there s nothing i can do short of changing the time i go to the gym something i can t do sigh if only this guy would interrupt me on the treadmill my luck he d ask me a grammar question posted in catchall tagged gym men treadmill 4 comments happy birthday e l posted on february 10 2011 by annieem it s the birthday of author e l konigsburg author of the 1968 award winning classics novels that greatly influenced me as a reader from the mixed up files of mrs basil e frankweiler and jennifer hecate mcbeth william mckinley and me elizabeth from the mixed up files did to the metropolitan museum of art what night at the museum did for the museum of natural history it became the place to be siblings claudia and jamie run away from home and camp out inside the museum and no the statues don t start walking and talking but the art becomes alive as seen through claudia s eyes and thus mine we were the same age i lived only 50 miles from manhattan but no one i knew actually visited the city regularly and no one i knew had actually been to the met that s right i might as well have been living thousands of miles from new york city but the ex nun who taught 4th grade at the local catholic school turned public school by the time i was there and who had introduced the book to us made sure we had the chance to see the film version that was playing only for some reason i don t know at radio city music hall she planned a field trip to the museum and to see the film a memorable day celebrate e l konigsburg s birthday she is still writing by sharing this book with a 10 year old girl or boy and then take them to the met for a special mixed up files tour make his or her day posted in literature memories tagged e l konigsburg 3 comments women wikipedia and flat tires posted on february 3 2011 by annieem a recent new york times article reports that only 15 of contributors to wikipedia are women as a result entries on the sopranos or the simpsons are in depth analyses while those on friendship bracelets and sex and the city are a meagre few paragraphs where s camille paglia when you need her she writes several possibly ground breaking essays on madonna in the 1980s and she is still vilified for her dilettantism among other flaws i know and now there is the call for more women writers beafing up those important entries on jimmy choo shoes and the tantric sex episode the goal is to have 25 of wikipedia entries written by women by 2015 despite my wee sarcasm i recognize the need for at least some alarm that women are not participating in one of the most widely read publications on the internet why aren t we do we prefer to give away our writing talents in other forums such as blogs is the gender gap the same for those other encyclopedias that actually pay a nominal quite nominal stipend and praise us with an actual byline i m almost motivated to develop originate a few of those wikipedia entries myself i checked out louisa may alcott s entry and while it is filled with good links references footnotes etc it s rather brief for a woman who has had three biographies written about her in the last few years her contemporary mark twain has an entry that is more than double the length if as the new york times article suggests this is true of many of the entries on women topics of interest to most women women s issues generally then it s a notable if also somewhat amusing problem not unlike the problem a young colleague had last night she s a brilliant psychology professor in her early 30s athletic outgoing and independent but when she got a flat tire last night who did she call another colleague friend who threw a coat on over her pjs and tried to figure out how to change a tire undoubtedly googling instructions but then gave up in frustration and admittedly lack of a flashlight and who did she call my husband who infused with male pride that came upon him despite himself immediately got off the couch at 8pm wine glass still half filled whipped on his shoes grabbed a flashlight with extra batteries and rushed to the young damsels aid thirty minutes later he was back on the couch and the young psychologist texted on facebook the following confession nothing like a flat tire to take away all that sense of female independence this is a woman who teaches both the violence and aggression class and the course on positive psychology so she has a wonderful sense of irony fyi i stayed home finished my wine and read blogs on the internet while hubby was changing my colleague s tire you see i would have called aaa a service i can now easily afford which also affords me that sense of female independence i rejoined hubby on the sofa when he returned and we both noted the odd connection between the wikipedia stats and the feminist psychologist s flat tire plight a woman needs to revise the how to change a flat tire entry stat added 2 7 11 wikiproject women s history is one response to the gender imbalance at wikipedia read all about it at cliotropic s place posted in

those who argued to require students to memorize poems lost that argument however lucky for me some of those teachers persisted i remember one of the poems i memorized it still resonates with me dream song 14 by john berryman life friends is boring we must not say so after all the sky flashes the great sea yearns we ourselves flash and yearn and moreover my mother told me as a boy repeatingly ever to confess you re bored means you have no inner resources i conclude now i have no inner resources because i am heavy bored peoples bore me literature bores me especially great literature henry bores me with his plights gripes as bad as achilles who loves people and valiant art which bores me and the tranquil hills gin look like a drag and somehow a dog has taken itself its tail considerably away into the mountains or sea or sky leaving behind me wag clio s recent posting about living with these three goblins of dread demoralization and futility reminded me of the poem but while clio describes classic burn out syndrome i m more bored i m heavy bored and i ve tried to fight it professionally i ve revamped my composition courses with new assignments and new approaches to evaluating student writing i ve volunteered to serve on not one but two newly formed potentially powerful task forces i m trying to focus on a writing project and i have so many fabulous ideas i m spending time planning and daydreaming about one of my favorite literature courses that i will be teaching spring quarter personally i ve signed up for another half marathon and will once again join the weekly training group with what is usually a great group of women i ve added new novels to my kindle ones that i m excited about reading i make sure i m staying social and not crawling under the covers with chocolates and mad men as clio describes though frankly that sounds utterly wonderful seasonal affective disorder perhaps but the weather is oddly spring like these days our college will soon have several administrative type positions open and i am being actively courted by a variety of people to apply i mean actively phone calls emails asides in the hallway chats over wine during happy hour invitations for more chats during happy hour it is naturally quite flattering and i m finding myself somewhat intrigued and after spending the last 2 days grading papers for 8 hours a day i find myself very very interested but in my current state of utter boredom my obvious absence of inner resources do i have what it takes to even make it through the application process would a new position really save me from my boredom or as berryman s mother says do i just need to go find some damned inner resources posted in academic life tagged academic life boredom 6 comments post navigation older
