Upon getting something in writing, The DrMS and I are ready to make our employment decision official and public. Starting in the fall semester of next year (August 2009), we'll be beginning new tenure-track jobs at the University of North Texas. We are very excited about starting this new phase of our lives together and are ecstatic to have such great new colleagues at our new jobs.

It's a bit unusual for dual-career academic couples in the same discipline to both acquire tenure-track jobs in the same department. I can't help but think part of making this happen was you all who sent positive thoughts, mojo, etc. our way. Thank you for all the support. :)

It's about time you and the Mrs. migrated towards civilization. Congrats Dokk!

Awesome, just awesome.

Now when Mrs. SeanGAR finishes her Ph.D. we'll have to go down the same road.

When the time comes if you want some advice for T&P give me a holler, I'm on the college committee and have seen more than a few packages. Hopefully, they do 2 and 4 year reviews before you have to go through the formal process (if you haven't already) to tweak things if necessary.

Again, awesome news, enjoy the new jobs!

Thanks for the offer, Sean. I might have to take you up on that down the road. The requirements are relatively humane there -- it's a 40-40-20 split with only 7 pubs required (and chapters count in that ... books count for several, too). Good luck with MrsGAR when the time comes. I hope to never have to deal with the dual hire thing again.
