Annual Faculty Meeting and My Academic Future

Posted by Stuart at 05:57 PM on April 30, 2006

I have been spending the weekend in Nashua, New Hampshire, at a Regional Faculty meeting for the online university I have been working for. It's always great to see my work colleagues face-to-face. In fact, there were two of them who I have been emailing quite a bit, who I finally met for the first time. It's always nice to finally be able to put a face to a name.

But perhaps more importantly, as with every time I go to an academic function, I wonder if I should spend more time on my teaching career. Perhaps I should really get started on that PhD I've been threatening for years.

Oh well, we'll see where that leads once I get back to Bangkok. But on a more superficial note, after the meeting was over I did the exact same thing I did after last year's meeting: I found an Outback Steakhouse and had one of the best steaks of my life. I do miss having a truly great steak every now and then.
