The University of Wisconsin Eau Claire is looking for two full-time professors. I thought you might be interested. I was just on their advisory board, they have a good program but you could do a lot for them. We discussed the need for mobile computing software development classes and the professor that was teaching UML was leaving which would be fun to teach. Your class sounds fun. If you ever offer a weekend course let me know. I now work at Hormel Foods, they do quite a bit in CF and would like to do more in Ajax.
