I got the official letter from the Provost yesterday approving my promotion to Full Professor. The Chancellor still has to sign off on it but I'm assuming that's more or less pro forma. In April my two books are coming out (maybe there's a connection here?) Things are looking very good, in other words. My only wish now is for a vacation. I haven't really taken more than two or three consecutive days off since August of 07.
[Update: now it's official. I got a second letter indicating the chancellor's decision.]
I hope it's not too soon to say congratulations!
ResponderEliminarWell done, my friend. Your university, your colleagues, and your students are very lucky to have you.
ResponderEliminarCongratulations from me and Julia! You deserved to be promoted to Full Professor years ago, with your four stellar books! I hope your department and colleagues begin to appreciate you as they should. No doubt, you are the rising star of KU!
ResponderEliminarCongratulations, Jonathan. You are an inspiration.
ResponderEliminarCongratulations Uncle Jonathon! Mom told me about it and that I had to check your blog for myself. Way to make your mark. :) You should enjoy a vacation to celebrate.
