Oh my gosh, Paul, one of my most favorite long-lost friends and great fiction writers teaches English there - his name is Brad Vice. I went to school with him at U of Cincinnati. Contact him immediately and tell him I said hi! Well, you don't have to do it immediately...but seriously, you will love him, he is a terrific person.
Mississippi, home of the great DC Berry. Congratulations, Paul! Can't wait to hear the details. I'm sure you will be able to indulge in plenty of pitchers of "swate tay"!
