Jillian T. Weiss
"When I first came to Ramapo College of New Jersey in January, 2004, an almost-newly-minted Ph.D., I was a temporary adjunct, hoping to get that elusive, highly sought-after tenure-track position, so I happily agreed to teach four courses I'd never taught before while finishing my dissertation and living in a little room on campus. I was, needless to say, a mess, working 18 hours a day, sleeping in my tiny office when I could no longer keep my head up, visited mostly by chipmunks that would run underneath the door jamb. And then there was Kay. "
