I have accepted the position of Assistant Professor beginning this fall at HBU!  More on this in a later blog post, but let me say that I whole-heartedly support President Sloan and incoming Provost John Mark Reynolds.  Along with new professor, Holly Ordway (pictured with me on campus), I find that HBU is the place to be!
