Jesse Harris goes to Pomona

Jesse Harris has accepted a tenure-track job at Pomona College in Southern California. Pomona is part of a consortium of five prestigious schools nestled at the foothills of the San Gabriel mountains, and is described (on their website) as blending "New England charm and South California beauty." It is the happy valley with a better climate. Pomona's linguistics and cognitive science department is top notch --- our own Meredith Landman has been teaching there for the past couple of years, and they recently hired Michael Diercks, a Bantuist from Georgetown.

Jess will be shipping off to his new career at the end of Fall 2011.

Congratulations Jesse!
