Well?

I interviewed at LSU in 1988, middle of winter (it actually snowed a tiny bit). I found the town gray and lacking in anything attractive (other than the job, which I didn’t get. I’d wanted the job very much (it had a very good PhD program in my field), but felt ambivalent after I left (apparently they also felt ambivalent or negative about me!). I’m a northerner and I don’t think I would ever have adapted to the culture. I’d liked New Orleans, but BR ain’t NOLA.
