发帖数: 107 | 1 I am wondering whether it is worth the hassle to switch to another
university that is academically similar to the current institution. Salary
will be probably 30% higher. Teaching load will be slightly higher. There is
no spousal job issue involved, but we do need to sell the house and buy in
the new location. I always thought people would only switch when it is to a
much better university ...
Opinions or suggestions from those who are already tenured Associate or Full
Professors will be highly appreciated! |

发帖数: 107 | 5 There are pros and cons in both.
Current location: rural, but very safe environment; convenient -- no traffic
at all; easygoing.
The other location: a fairly nice medium-size city; traffic can be bad;
better K-12 schools within reach (housing price would be more than double
but that is not too big a concern)

发帖数: 107 | 6 Thanks for the link. Unfortunately it does not even include the town we are
currently in. Compared with closest city, living expense will be ~10% higher.
(sorry I mistakenly sent it to your mailbox the first time -- did not mean
to do that)
