c*f 发帖数: 977 | 1 LD came back from onsite, and wrote thank-you letter to the chair and the
chair replied very nicely and said they would have a tough time deciding
what they wanted to do a few days ago. Today, the chair replied to LD's thank
-you letter again to say "I think this are good. You should here before long
". Since the chair is a native english speaker and his short email full of
grammatical error, we doubt if this email is a bug, and what he meant if it
is not a bug. Any comments? |

emails. My Chinese colleagues, on the contrary, are very picky about grammar
mistakes, due partly to their TOFEL training..
the email is a very good sign |
c*f 发帖数: 977 | 3 Thanks. LD had many email exchanges with the chair over the last few weeks.
All other emails have no grammatical problems and make good sense. Only this
one looks strange...

c*f 发帖数: 977 | 6 Thanks all for good will. Suppose the committee decided to give LD offer. Do
they need to talk to dean and let the dean OK the decision first, before
notifying LD? How long will it take?
【在 B******e 的大作中提到】 : Offer on the way!

3) after the dept's (not just the committee's) decision.

l*******7 发帖数: 431 | 8 也许他本来写的很多,后来觉得不合适(在正式 offer 下来前说太多可能会有麻烦),
就删掉一些,所以就显得有点奇怪。
根据这封信的内容,大概他想说的是,在你老公去onsite 之前有两个candidates 比较
势均力敌,他们不太好做决定,但是你老公onsite 后,他们发现你老公明显超过那两
个人,所以大家一致都同意选你老公。
