Big news finally official
Some big news was brewing at the end of the spring semester. I made a trip down to Atlanta to talk to Emory University about an opening they had at the Goizueta Business School (Mr. Goizueta was a longtime CEO of Coca Cola). (Here's some more information about Emory.) Actual negotiations about the position started when I got to Italy, and it was quite interesting having conversations across the ocean with administrators at the school and with Beth.
But now everything is wrapped up and I will be teaching at Emory starting in the spring semester of 2009, which means this holiday season is going to be an interesting one for our family. Alli will be able to finish the fall semester at Tolland High School. Our search for a place to live will focus mostly around finding a good school situation for her in Atlanta and there are a number of options that already are looking good. We will know more about that later in the summer.
Moving will be hard, but also exciting. Missing another Connecticut winter will not be a problem, though.
