Quoting the job description:
Minimum qualifications: Possession of a baccalaureate educational
degree.
sorta knocks that "free tuition for classes at UH" part in the dirt.

A very nice email has come our way respectfully requesting that this
community know more about a good job opportunity at UH. It seems that
LUAU is the appropriate list for this. Apparently the job description
does not do the fun of the job any justice, so the following is a
verbatim statement from this future employees' supervisor:
The job description is long
(http://workatuh.hawaii.edu/zoom_job.php?9167) but it really boils
down to working with systems that have web front ends, MySQL or
similar base, and some combination of mostly open source application
programs in between. Advantages that might outweigh the not-so-great
salary are the free tuition for classes at UH and of course the
generous holiday, vacation and sick leave. Also my department allows
flex scheduling, some work from home, doesn't make anyone work swing
shifts. The job has the potential to be very diverse and could give
someone a range of practical experience. How to reach the new grads,
or those with aptitude with a certain level of geekiness, who might
be thinking about going back to grad school? Specifically we are
currently using Plone/Zope, dSpace (from MIT), Streetprint (a
canadian digital collection management system) and Geoserver, the
servers are almost all Linux of some flavor, we use Apache Tomcat.
The job can have a lot of variety and even be "fun" but there's no
way to convey that to the right people within the structure of the
official job description. If you could spread the word, that would
be great. The deadline for applications is March 20.
