Dear England, I'm pleased to report I've been invited for a job interview for
Lebanon Valley College. LVC is located in Annville, a small town in Pennsylvania about 35 miles east of the state capital, Harrisburg. It's a really picturesque part of the country, with rolling hills, classic American red barns, and a cosy charm...Plus you can visit the nearby Hershey's chocolate factory in, yes, Hershey, Pennsylvania. Makes you think we should have a town called Cadbury's in England!
The interview takes places at the
Modern Languages Association (MLA) Conference in Philadelphia in December. (The MLA is the biggest conference in the US for English departments, and a mighty big job fair to boot.) I am excited to speak with Dr. Gary Grieve-Carlson and Dr. Laura Eldred, my interviewing faculty from the LVC
English department.
Wish me luck!
