Going deep in the shallows

July 16th, 2010

Job candidates should always have a few interesting books to mention during casual conversational moments that come up in their on-campus interviews. Here’s one from yesterday that I was pleased to hear about: The Shallows, by Nicholas Carr (author of “Is Google Making Us Stupid?”, which I read and enjoyed when it appeared in The Atlantic a while ago.) Always a pleasure serving on these search committees, as I pick up such intriguing information along the way…. also, the lunches are generally wonderful!
