Well, February's not starting out great. Props to Boehringer Ingelheim for posting the lone industrial ad of the week for a senior MS-level process scientist position. (ACS reg. req.) A nice big one, too -- the C&EN ad revenue department thanks you.

Chair, chair, who wants a chair?: I see a lot of these ads for department chairs and I never know what to think of them. This week, it's North Carolina Central University (Chemistry, ACS reg. req.) and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology's (ChemE). I strongly doubt any professors of note or experience read this blog yet, but if you are and you're looking for a change, these positions might be for you!

Department of the coming apocalypse: Imation (hey, aren't they the flash drive people?) are selling their manufacturing equipment in the back pages of C&E News. Just in case anyone wanted to buy a 30 million dollar solvent recovery plant, you could bid on it, you know. Someone has to stimulate the economy.

Small school of the week: Centenary College of Louisiana (student population 908, SA-LUTE!) is looking for a temporary professor (ACS reg. req.) to teach organic chemistry lecture and lab. I understand that Shreveport has a lovely collection of local casinos.
