On Thursday this class will have potential new faculty member(s)s visit the class, in order to give public, technical talks to the campus community (and our class). Giving educational, public lectures is an important part of the duties of a professor, so candidates for a job as a professor must demonstrate their abilities as part of the hiring interview process.

You will write an essay evaluating the candidate(s).

The goal of your essays is to assist in the hiring decision process. You will do this by:

Professional Behavior: This a professional talk, given in what is, for the job candidate, a high-pressure situation. Please be polite. This means, most especially, do not photograph the job candidate's slides. Those slides are the candidates' intellectual property and you have no legal right to copy them.

The talk will not be audio recorded, for the same reason. The potential professor is our guest.

Submit to Canvas Assignment via class Canvas site.


Hint: Your essay should be about one (full and complete) page for full credit. Or longer.
