wolven7As of today, I will be a part-time instructor of philosophy at Kennesaw State University, for their spring semester, teaching at least one section of their course, "Ways Of Knowing." I will design my own course readings and syllabus (need to do that, soon).
From me they still need Official Transcripts (sent) and three reference letters (requested). They'll need a list of books they need to order, within the next three weeks, and my syllabus is due on the 15th of December. When I receive my official hiring letter, in the next few weeks, I'll have to arrange a meeting with KSU HR, and go fill out paperwork.
Pay rate is $2100/Section, with the possibility of two, but no more than three sections (part-time rules, as laid out by the University System of Georgia).
This is the first academic teaching position I've held since I got my Masters Degree, three and a half years ago. It is closer to what I want to be doing, all at once, than any single thing I've succeeded in doing, thus far. When I put this together with everything else I've done, and everything else I'm doing, I am now closer to where I want to be than ever before.
Every academic course I teach, every conference on which I co-ordinate, every event I plan, every strategy I implement or facilitate, and every research consultation i perform puts me that much closer to my goals.
Today can be a good day.
