U4M/W: University Seeks Provost
January 30, 2009 at 12:10 pm
You guys, Penn is in the market for a new provost. And guess what? You can apply!
Check out the job description posted on The Chronicle of Higher Education, which is a proto-craigslist-type website that people with Ph. D.'s use to find jobs. Are you an "eminent, energetic, and judicious academic leader"? Um, you go to Penn and you were probably on student council at some point in your years of school, and that's good enough for us.
Applications are due February 13, two weeks from today. It will be tough to balance overseeing "the conduct, coordination, and quality of all of Penn's academic programs" with pledging and midterms, not to mention writing this blog, but think how good "provost" will look on internship resumes--we're totally applying.
