Announcing On the Fence Relaunch 2011

On the Fence is now officially a team effort, starring Eliza Woolf and Benjamin Harrison. We're both in the midst of major career transitions (more on this later) and will be updating the blog regularly.

I'm in the thick of an academic job search and might actually be starting up on the tenure track somewhere this fall, while Ben is in the process of transitioning out of the ivory tower for good. Just as I'm on the brink  of jumping blindly off the fence in one direction, Ben is poised to jump with his eyes wide open in the opposite direction. Who is the craziest? Tune in to future posts to find out . . .

Regardless of where we end up, however, Ben and I plan to keep blogging about our experiences and discussing issues relevant to academics, higher ed, and job-seeking PhDs and ABDs. Thanks for reading!
