Yes, but the Rural Soc faculty is 10 Blue to 3 Red. Perhaps this reflects some other tendency?

BTW, is this really productive use of time?

Yes, but how does it break down for pre-civil war slave vs. free states? There you're on the side of the good guys...

So UW sociology is just a bunch of blue-state elitism?

Did someone really just ask if something I posted to this weblog was a productive use of time? Thanks. Where exactly have you been for the last 16 months?

I've been serving on the tenure and promotion committee. Why do you ask?

Thanks, Anon. There's nothing I like more before going to bed than a panic attack and outbreak of hives.

Jeremy: Though I have not seen your VITA, my sense is that your publications thus far put you in very good shape for survival at any Reserach I university. Just stay active.

Yes, but look at how blue that county is:

Except: I went to Iowa for my undergrad degree. My Ph.D. is from Indiana. On the bright side, Bloomington also went for Kerry: 54%-45%. On the dim side, Bush did carry the county where I grew up (Calhoun County, Iowa) 59%-41%. Back on the bright side, Kerry won the vote among residents of the Freese Family Farm itself, 100%-0%.
