“I have always believed that contemporary gender discrimination within universities is part reality and part perception, but I now understand that reality is by far the greater part of the balance.” \u2014Charles Vest, when president of MIT (source<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I teach at a primarily undergraduate institution with ~15 classroom hours a week. I still have been able to have fun with research and writing. And my writing spans several genres: advice to department chairs, humorous essays, traditional journal articles, and letters to the editor. I really like writing!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
