    Coloring books have come to the aid of stressed out people the world over, and academic life is one full of stresses. This activity book invites us into a day in the life of an academic, and with authorial wit and clever original illustrations immerses its users, through coloring and other activities, to the unique experiences and challenges of academic life. Intended as an interactive satire, the combination of humor and activities can settle any mind, and also bring into entertaining relief the lives of campus academics.

    Finally a novel that puts the "e;pissed"e; back into "e;epistolary."e;Jason Fitger is a beleaguered professor of creative writing and literature at Payne University, a small and not very distinguished liberal arts college in the midwest. His department is facing draconian cuts and squalid quarters, while one floor above them the Economics Department is getting lavishly remodeled offices. His once-promising writing career is in the doldrums, as is his romantic life, in part as the result of his unwise use of his private affairs for his novels. His star (he thinks) student can't catch a break with his brilliant (he thinks) work Accountant in a Bordello, based on Melville's Bartleby. In short, his life is a tale of woe, and the vehicle this droll and inventive novel uses to tell that tale is a series of hilarious letters of recommendation that Fitger is endlessly called upon by his students and colleagues to produce, each one of which is a small masterpiece of high dudgeon, low spirits, and passive-aggressive strategies. We recommend Dear Committee Members to you in the strongest possible terms.
