Pros

Great town to live in, nice athletics programs, new president who is doing good things to grow the research function of the university, American has several flights a day to ORD and DFW.

Cons

Town is far from anything -- Topeka is the closest, but is not a destination; will take anyone who graduates a Kansas high school; lots of politics (but that may be the case with any university)

Pros

- fantastic leave! PTO, Sick, Holiday, maternity - amazing people and students. Ranked high for friendliest students for a reason - tuition assistance for one place semester if you're continuing education - once your foot is in the door, potential to use internal connection to move up within the university

Cons

- pay could be more competitive but makes up for it somewhat in leave - top heavy administration, former leadership made uprooting changes and didn't see the change through; left university scrambling - resistance to change causes siloes. - structural fiscal issues that doesn't work well for interdisciplinary, collaborative work - great coworkers move up the university or leave and don't stay long
