I knew a guy socially on the CU Business School faculty that taught a few times on board in the Semester at Sea program. Full pay, I think, and free passage. And, when he did it, he was single (again).

We took a QM II out of Brooklyn to the Caribbean last year and it was beyond belief. The food, the amenities and everything else were far superior to any other cruiseline.
Jump right in; the :rolleyes: are warm. |

Rental car would have cost another $45 if we kept it past 9 am and the flights looked pretty full toward the end of the day.

Missed this post. Nice photos. URL's please. I like the one with the RR tracks.
you should be able to pick up the others from there and the 'originals' as well. You have permissions to use on your own. |

The benefits are while onboard. If it only costs me a few hours per year to keep up my status, and I cruise once that year and get lounge access, free Internet, free dry cleaning and shoe polishing, no waiting in line at the pier or for disembarking at ports, a free minibar, canapes on formal night, afternoon tea, 10% off in the shops, comped wine tasting events, and upgraded cabin and bathroom amenities, it's well worth those few hours for that one cruise.

Those are some nice benefits. The only cruise Ive been on was a 13 day NCL cruise around Hawaii and some other island but dont remember the name. It kinda sucked because I was 18 so no alcohol (but my dad took care of that) and no casino.

Interesting that your school does not give sabbaticals. Does that mean there is some modification to the tenure system there? I'm not saying I advocate tenure (I have no well founded opinion), but it is a part of university life that is hundreds of years old, and the unions and associations certainly must defend it fiercely. |
