Here is something that happened in the Bug household that’s
a Really Big Deal:
Dr. M
got tenure!!!
…and a promotion at his university. I’m pretty darn proud of him – he apparently
put together a most excellent tenure & promotion portfolio & wowed the
Beings in Charge of Such Matters.
Daddy & Amy were pretty proud too – here’s what awaited
us when we got to their house (along with a banner & balloon for my
birthday).
Love you dear heart – mwah!
Woooohooooo!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteConga-rats!! *dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-da!*
What a lovely birthday present. :)
ReplyDeleteWoo-Hoo, Yee-Haw, Gosh Darn, and a big HOORAY!!!
ReplyDeleteThey know quality when they see it!
Hey, that's great! Mucho congrats!
ReplyDeleteWow! What great news! And by-golly-by-gosh, I got here to read about it before it was week old news. Yea, me!
ReplyDeleteBut especially, YEA, him! That's a big deal for sure. I'd celebrate for a month. I wonder if I could get tenure somehow..... LOL
So terrific. The Grail of Education, really. Kudos, Professor.
ReplyDeleteI dont even know what "Tenure" means... but you have BIG BOLD letters & balloons ... so I'll celebrate & say CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!! :)
ReplyDeletewhat great news! congratulations to the doc.
ReplyDeleteThanks, y'all! I was hired on a tenure track contract, and I am good at what I do, so I have had some security the last three years, but tenure gives me another level of security and allows me to participate more fully in shared governance of the university. Yes, that translates to more work, lol! It is a major pat on the back, and protection against arbitrary dismissal, and in my case, it also comes with promotion to Associate Professor, which means a raise :-)
ReplyDeleteDr. M
Congratulations Dr M!
ReplyDeleteGreat News!!! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI don't recall reading about pirates getting tenure. But then he does look like a nice pirate.
ReplyDeleteGreat news. Well done.
