pameladlloyd: Alya, an original character by Ian L. Powell (labyrinth)
It has been nearly a month since I posted anything. Bad me. I must make myself heard more often.

I am still looking for a new position. Last weekend I attended an Adjunct Faculty Job Fair held by Pima Community College. I learned that they have already filled most of the vacancies for the Spring semester; I think the job fair was mostly to get new potential faculty into the system, since PCC requires a fairly lengthy certification process. I noticed that most of the people attending in hopes of teaching still needed to go through the certification process; fortunately, I completed this process last year, so should they suddenly find an opening for me, I'll be prepared to step right in. I was able to make some contacts and have a tentative appointment to meet with someone about tutoring in early November, after she returns from a conference.

I'll also be one of the participants at TusCon. I've been assigned to two panels and a reading, all on Saturday, November 14, 2009. I had an additional panel on Sunday, but due to a programming error, it had to be removed from the schedule.

My Schedule:

Time Location Topic
11:00 a.m. McArthur Retelling Fairytales: How does the medium and the culture affect the story?
4:00 p.m. El Dorado Reading
5:00 p.m. Gold Ballroom Teaching Old Tropes New Tricks: Making formulae interesting.



Of course, I'll also be attending the Friday evening Meet the Guests reception at 7:00 p.m. in the Gold Ballroom.
