I do not recall this having been passed on the list, so I pass it along
from a post on MEDTEXTL

==========

Who would have guessed that this ex-high school coach would have designed a
university multimedia lab and become its director?  That is what has
finally happened.  This year, I am the half-time director of

The Muriel Tomlinson Language Resource Center
http://fmc.utm.edu/~rpeckham/lab.html

My my actual supervisory time in the lab is dictated by a workload
equivallency formula drawn up in an efficiency study.  I do have some long
hour on duty, but I have a student lab technology person (a freshman I
recruited myself) student assistants, and every full-time member of our
faculty has swapped out some office hours to be present in the lab, helping
students.  My chair works with me and believes a program which, though not
revolutionary on a theoretical basis, is fairly daring.

When we look for any new faculty from now on (and we will be looking for
two), computer literacy and some experience with CALL will take precedence
over over Lacanian loquacity and neo-Derridian nonsense.

Yes, I will join IALL, when I get some of the prliminaries of my new job
under my belt.  I do like what I am doing now.  I have a lot to learn from
all of you, so I will try to be very attentive.
