I just arrived at a new tenure track position (assistant professor, R2, mediocre pay). Another Uni, after a lengthy search and negotiation process, has offered Associate, astronomically higher salary, and immediate tenure review (and a spring start date - gasp). I intend on taking it. My question - how and when to let my current uni know? And how to prepare for the blow back? Can the current uni/dean make me stay? (the faculty handbook or contract doesn't say so) Ready. Set. Go!
Leaving right when you get to a new position
