lakmiseiru has decided Now I've been invited to visit both UCSD and U Arizona. Meeting with a guy from UA on Monday for coffee (he's just moved and is back in town). The UA trip means one day less of weekend-working to make up vacation days. I like both UCSD and UA, but neither is on the top of my list. I have spent time in San Diego but not Tuscon. The plane tickets to UA will be at least another $200 above their reimbursement, unfortunately, while San Diego's are covered, but I can ask parents for funds. There's some word that the department at UCSD is imploding, but otoh I doubt my partner can find a job in Tuscon (and has been offered one in San Diego).
UCSD says that they might have another date or do phone interviews - not the most helpful nor the most polite of answers. I asked them to let me know when they decide which they're doing, and said "yes!" to UA.
