The RIT Physics Faculty webpage was updated recently to include the information of the recent faculty hires, 2 lecturers and 2 tenure track. And among those is an entry for me. It’s been a long journey for that entry to appear. And by no means is it time to relax and take a long vacation. But wow... there it is.

I’ll be teaching my first class next quarter, a section of University Physics I. Then in the spring quarter I get to teach Experiments in Modern Physics. That has to be the single most fun course I’ve ever gotten to be a part of (as a graduate student, and even as an undergraduate TA). Had I paid enough attention while I was having so much fun in that class as an undergraduate I might have had a more direct route through graduate school than my tour of high energy theory.

In the mean time I’m still setting up my lab, adjusting to my new responsibilities, trying to get some students started, and finishing some of my own work too.
