Thanks, Linda! Now, a really dumb question for you . . . Should I talk to someone at UMUC to apply, or should I go through the computer system for jobs?
Best,
Melinda

Hah--I love it!! And yes, you should think about full time, Melinda. And I think that you should consider applying--what have you got to lose! Worst case: You go back to being an adjunct! Or better worst case: They give you a full time fac line!
Hope you apply. And feel free to list me as a ref.
Best--
Linda

Hi Linda:
Did you see the one that went "I love cooking grandma and my kids"?
It was presented as a problem in comma non-usage, but I thought a good old preposition "for" was what was required.
I am starting teaching my first African American Studies course on Monday! Tony Lee who heads that program told Mark he'd like me to take over Mark's position! With Elinor at 13, I am wondering if I could swing such a thing -- work Tues-Thurs morning in Largo, and do the rest of my work via telecommuting?
Just pondering . . .
Hope you are enjoying this luscious Fall weather.
Melinda

Warning: Parts of it are a little raunchy (comma sutra), but other parts are really cute.
eg:
What's another name for Santa's elves?
Subordinate clauses (HAH!)
