Here's why I'm leaning toward taking it:
- It involves something I believe in, and I might really be able to make a difference in the world.
- I would be given fairly free reign to design the program I'd be responsible for. Very little micro-managing from above.
- It involves developing relationships with a variety of non-profit organizations and connecting people with their services, which sounds like satisfying work.
- It involves teaching without grading.
- The pay isn't awesome, but it is respectable.
- It is a highly flexible job, which would enable me to work more during the school year and less during the summer.
- It's a part-time job, so I can continue teaching classes at UVU without being stretched too thin.
- It could easily lead to new and unexpected opportunities in the future.
You never know what might happen when you wake up in the morning.

Good luck with the decision (and transition if you go ahead with it).
That's awesome! Good news is coming up everywhere-- I start my new job next week.
Cool! Teaching without grading sounds sublime. Can't wait to hear more!
"Teaching without grading" -- love it!
