RecommendsPositive OutlookDisapproves of CEOI have been working at Skidmore College full-time (More than 10 years)
Pros
Smart and motivated students, ample resources for teaching and research, great facilities, funding for research and conferences, good work-life balance, much better environmental than most liberal arts colleges which are in the middle of nowhere
Cons
Saratoga Springs is not a big city, limited career options for spouses
Advice to Management
I like Phil G, but I think he has been in his position and lost his motivation and drive. Mike West needs to be reined in, too powerful.
