Yikes! It was already difficult to recruit faculty during my days at USM, but now that the IHL Board is moving everyone, whether tenured or not, to "at-will" employee status, I suspect that recruitment efforts will become impossible. These changes provide strong discouragement to anyone having "professional loyalty" to any Mississippi academic institution. Good luck to all my former colleagues, as you will need it to survive this "enlightened" institutional management.
