Typo Update

Praise Moroni! I sent an urgent email to the secretary about the unfortunate typo mentioned in my previous post and she was able to retrieve the application from the outgoing mail. This is one time when her leisurely way of doing things has actually been beneficial. This means I don't have to overnight a new cover letter to the search committee that otherwise would have received the defective letter. This victory is made all the more sweet by the knowledge that a very prominent faculty member in my department (someone with whom I actually have little contact) recently put in a plug for me with the head of the search committee at that very school. I found this out today as I was signing the revised cover letter.
