- Fortunately most apartments are on major thoroughfares and their given street addresses make it clear what road they are on anyway. The aim here is to create useful maps while not making them so busy that one must really concentrate to read them. It's a difficult job in cartography to find the right balance between conveying information and good presentation. I find that many maps have too much information. So I do not plan on adding aerial backdrops, names of most residential streets, and labeling over apartments.

Putting labels directly into apartment footprints is also possible but because of their close proximity and often small footprints, that would become messy very quickly.

They have told us that the computers have flown on the shuttle and ISS, running non life-critical experiments and such. As we respect our customers' privacy, I couldn't say much more that that anyway.

What is it?" + + On the department level: committees, advising, chair (avoid if you can!). At the college/university level: more committees. Beyond the university: refereeing for journals, being involved in the work of societies, donating time to things related to your area of specialization. No one gets tenure becaue they did a lot of service, but everyone has to do some of it. It's remarkably easy to get sucked into too much, so again, learn how to say "no." (As in: "I'd really like to, but I have this big project I'm working on" -- everyone expects that your research will come first, especially as a new faculty member). + + "I've seen many profs working very very long hours up until they get tenure.

It's a good thing to try to find out (stealthily) when interviewing for a job. There's much more emphasis on bringing in funding in the sciences than in other areas, but in general, the main thing is publishing in peer reviewed journals. You usually need to have at least decent teaching reviews, too, though again, that depends on whether you're at a more research-oriented univ or more teaching-oriented (which would usually have lower expectations for #s of articles published). Some areas expect a book. + + "I've also heard much of politics being a big thing among professors - fighting for lab space, funding, and whatever else professors fight over (what DO they fight over?) How do you handle the politics? What causes it? Can it be avoided?" + + I don't think we're any more or less political than anyone else, but there can be infighting when there are perceived unfairnesses. You can have people thinking they are big shots and deserve more than everyone else. A congenial department is worth its weight in gold. Try to get a sense of that when you interview if you can. And if you're untenured, just try to stay out of it. Focus on your research and teaching, be polite to everyone, and keep your mouth shut (I wasn't very good at the latter, but it's good advice nonetheless). --["Users/CovertProfessor"]

	+ ------ + ''2008-10-29 17:03:06'' [[nbsp]] Hi IDoNotExist. I am astonished to be talking to one who does not exist, but then, you spoke to one who is covert, so I guess logic is just out the window at this point. + + You had asked, "I'm wondering what your thoughts are on life as a professor. How is it different than you might have expected? Do you get to spend as much time as you would like on your research? What suggestions do you have for the future professors out there?" + + Well, I could go on and on, but I'll give you what comes to mind first, and feel free to ask more questions if you have them. + + I like being a professor quite a bit. It is extremely rewarding to be able to expose students to things that they may not have come across before, and to get them to think about them. I also enjoy researching; it's wonderful to have a community of people to share ideas with, since most people don't have a background in the sort of work I do. Service... well, that's less exciting, but it has its moments. :-) + + One thing that is different from what I expected is how little time I have. I always wondered why my professors seemed so busy -- now I know. Basically, there is an infinite amount of work that you could be doing, and a lot of it you would really like to be doing. But it's nice to have a life, too. So, you have to learn how to be satisfied with the amount of work you are getting done and still be satisfied with your non-academic life. It's a balance I am still striving to achieve. So, do I have enough time for research? Enough to satisfy the powers-that-be, yes. Enough to do everything I want to do? No, there are things I am dying to do, projects on the pile that I may never get to. But I guess it's better that way than to have nothing I want to do. :-) + + Suggestions for future professors... hmmm... One is, know what you want in terms of a balance of research and teaching, and try to find a university that has a good fit. But accept that jobs are scarce, and so you may not be able to find your ideal job, initially or ever. Another is not too put too much time into your lectures (it's a mistake almost every new prof makes) -- you realize that there's only so much you can get across in a lecture, and that after awhile there is a real diminishing return in the amount of time you put in. Yet another is to go to conferences (never too early to start) and make friends. This doesn't mean suck up to the big names in the field (though many try that route), this means get to know people working on subjects you are interested in. It will pay off in multiple ways. And for my last suggestion... learn how to say "no" to things that won't help you (you especially don't want to agree to too much service work when you're starting out) and "yes" to opportunities that allow your name to be known and get you to meet people in your field. Sounds simple, but the "no" part is especially hard. + + Ok, that's it for now. --["Users/CovertProfessor"]

As a result, I always think of vampires when I see it. :) --["Users/JabberWokky"]

There's probably no aspect of the wiki that everybody agrees on. Also, I agree that the halving-the-city questioning technique isn't very fun. Questions should be used only as a very last resort, after all hints have been exhausted, and even then, only yes/no questions should be asked, and only to confirm a genuine suspicion of the object's location. --["Users/TheAmazingLarry"]
