My application has passed another level of inspection, the one after which all the rest is rubber-stamping. So, although I’ll be getting another couple of letters of approval as the process takes its course, I am now certain that as of next spring, I will be a full professor.
It has taken me a long time, and I’m happy to achieve this goal. It might have happened sooner if the MMP had been less recalcitrant, but research takes the time it takes. Anyway: Yay!
Congratulations, Dame Eleanor! I remember Talbot Donaldson telling my brand-spanking- new graduate cohort that it took far longer than other specialities to become a medievalist, and that one only came into their own in middle age.
It is an accomplishment at any age. Celebrate!
Congratulations, this is a long and arduous path.
Fabulous! Hurrah! And, of course, congratulations on many, many jobs more than well done!
