Hi all, I know this is an unusual posting for this list, but I think there are several people here who would make outstanding candidates if they are interested. This is the position that I recently vacated, so if there’s anything you want to know feel free to ask. What I will say now is that you will have the best colleagues one could ever hope for, and that the cost of living here in Carbondale is low, so the salary would be quite comfortable here. SIU is primarily a Windows campus, but they do have several students on Macs, including one blind Voiceover user, and you would be supporting the Mac in their computer lab.
Obviously, this is off-topic, so please don’t respond to the list. If you have any questions, either contact Rita (see below) or if you want to ask me questions, you can email me privately at doniado...@me.com <mailto:doniado...@me.com>. I hope some of you will think about applying.
