[Did not know such a town exist]

"The year’s at the spring, And day’s at the morn; Morning’s at seven; The hill-side’s dew-pearled; The lark’s on the wing; The snail’s on the thorn; God’s in His heaven— All’s right with the world!" ~Robert Browning, Pippa Passes

[Okay but]

Anyone else apply for this job back when the deadline was October 1 (or thereabouts)? I applied but never heard anything. Sort of figured it was a lost cause. I was surprised to see this ad pop up on the Chronicle today. Oh well, best of luck all!

[oncampus]

Faculty live on campus!?!? Does that mean they CAN or they MUST? Isn't it illegal for an employer to tell you where to live as a condition of your employment?

Sounds like a great gig for those who want to spend the rest of their life living in a college dorm.

[much fun]

You live on campus in a small town that is surrounded by people who think professors are weird.
