Duke is 1 of 3 teams that annihilated my bracket this weekend. I hate them.
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling that the professor of the practice position has already been filled. If you're going to hire a 1 year replacement, you're not going to look specifically for a professor of the practice. But, if there is a friend of the department who can fill in for a 1 year sabbatical and who the department wants to pay at the "professor of the practice" level, then that's their prerogative. Here at American U, we have a tremendous Professor of the Practice/Chemist in Residence. These are usually end of career folks or people who have made lots of money as entrepreneurs who enjoy want to spend part of their time teaching.
