Attention, godless UMM students!

We're off to a late start, but the first meeting of the UMM Freethinkers will be held tomorrow, 25 October, at 7:00pm in the Moccasin Flower Room of the student union. I should add that if you aren't a student, but are an interested member of the Morris community who would like to get together with fellow infidels on a regular basis, you're invited, too.

I'm not sure what exactly the meeting will be about, since it's entirely student run, but I'll be saying a few words at the event. Come on by and help us plan our imminent takeover of the universe!

The last time I talked about our job search, I got a lot of comments of the form "Why does the process take so damn long?" As the first of our short list candidates shows up today for a campus visit/ interview, I thought I'd go through a sketch of what we do, and why it takes so long. I'm going to…
