Robyn has a job!

I accepted the position of professor at the Copenhagen Business School and am resigning my position at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. My new position at CBS will be very similar to my current position at SIUC -- half researching, quarter teaching, an a quarter service. I will be teaching organizational communication and gender and communication. I am very excited to work with the other scholars at the CBS (several of whom I know by reputation already!). You can check out their website: http://uk.cbs.dk/forskning_viden/institutter_centre/institutter/ikl. I will also be working with other departments and research centres at CBS. Check it out!

We have a flat!

Our new home in Copenhagen is a cute 3 bedroom furnished flat! We found an advertisement for the flat online and contacted the owners. They are very nice and we signed the lease (which has been an adventure with an ocean between us!). The flat is on the third floor (we think) and the building is over 300 years old! The flat is located right in the heart of Copenhagen's City Centre and is about a 10 minute walk or ride on the metro from our offices. There is plenty of room for visitors! You can check out pictures of our flat at

This is a test...

This posting is really just a test so I can learn how to post pictures... but this is me and Joel while we watched the Texas A&M band march to the capitol for the big football game last Thanksgiving. We won't discuss who actually won the game... but it was great fun to be there!

Welcome to our blog. Please be patient with us... this is our first blog! But, we will try to keep it updated and loaded with pictures, especially once we arrive in Copenhagen.

Moving to Copenhagen

Joel has accepted a two year fellowship with the Danish National Research Foundation: Center for Subjectivity Research in Copenhagen, Denmark. He will move to Copenhagen in early June. We are still working on my plans – I am still teaching here at SIUC. I hope to join him in Copenhagen for at least a year, if not longer.

We don’t have many more details, but will keep you posted as our plans materialize. Visitors to Copenhagen are always welcomed!
