To those who still drop by here from time to time, I’d like to announce that I am going to take a leave of absence from my PhD program this year, and that I have accepted the position of Director of Educational Programs at the Institute for Humane Studies. IHS seems very serious about letting me manage several smart people and a substantial budget. I’ll also get to help set the intellectual agenda for its various educational programs. I’m looking forward to the challenge, and to being in The District again! Sadly, this means I must leave Cato as an employee, though I’m hoping to remain affiliated in an adjunct capacity. I am making the switch at the end of February.
Oh, and I am rather hoping that taking time off from school will enable me to blog! Only time will tell, but it may make sense to check in here in March.
