Shared on Fri, 10/19/2007 - 10:41Well, this morning I walk into the office and saw that I had a voice message waiting for me. Assuming it was from a customer I'm thinking this is a sign of how my FRIDAY is going to be, busy from the get-go. But to my surprise it’s a message from the Dean at Devry University asking to speak with me about a potential Adjunct Faculty position.
Wahoo!!!
Well, back in the spring I had applied and interviewed for an adjunct faculty position. As part of the interview process I had to teach/present a topic in a classroom setting in front of two deans and several professors. I was a bit nervous (whole other comical story). I had no teaching experiences, though I had done some presentations and tech talks to fellow co-workers. My only qualification was that I had a masters degree for which I earned from the same university, acquired my bachelors there as well and they like to see alumni come back and teach.
So anyway, my point is after that initial interview I was offered a course for which I accepted but then afterwards they had to give it to another professor for he/she needed it to fulfill their fulltime requirements. They said they would call me if they had an opportunity for any summer courses but I never heard back. So enough time has passed that I've kind of forgotten about this.
But now out of the blue it looks like I may have a decision to make. Kind of excited and nervous at the same time. We (Wife and I) will have to rehash everything to make sure this is something I am still able to do. Got to do it this weekend for I am to call the Dean back on Monday.
