"Ok,你给我的due day是期末，那我就在这个日期之前完成这个作业：）”。

tenure-track professor，这类是给刚入行的，或者有几年经验，在track里呆了几年

我上网看学校faculty的网页，发现一些学校的系本身已经有adjunct professor，

看招tenure-track的广告，将来预期教的课程的和这些adjunct professor现在正在教

虽然申请了，心中不由得有些猜疑，比如说，那些adjunct professor，好像没有理由
不申请tenure-track吧，他/她们已经在那里教学了，比其他的申请者是不是更有优势
呢？ （想到这里总有点disencouraged）我是不是应该把他/她们看成潜在的对手呢？
还有，adjunct professor不会参加search committee吧。
