Princeton ties Harvard for #1 Spot: in 2012 ! Yay!
Go Tigers!!!!! Let us not be scared of the bears!
Colleagues, and Readers of this blog!
I wanted to share the following news as a matter of pride with all of you. As you know, I have moved to Princeton University and taken up here a post as a librarian for Slavic, Eastern European and Eurasian Studies (that includes Central Asia). After 22 years of life in Los Angeles and almost 10 years of service at UCLA, I was questioning my own decision to move. However, epiphany does happen sometimes very slowly. And I am writing this note not as a grateful immigrant whose narrative is informed by the opportunities for expression in this society, but as a collection development librarian who only reams of working at a Ivy!
Of course, I am a product of public education and admire UCLA very much. I have come to love my Alma mater over a period of long 22 years, when I took my first course during the summer out there in LA.
