County or County Equivalent of the Week: Gaston County, NC


"Gaston County is located in the South-Central Piedmont of North Carolina. As part of the Charlotte Region, Gaston County offers a slower paced life with all the excitement of the big city right next door."

Korrektiv readers looking for a respite from the rat race might want to check out the U.S. National Whitewater Center and/or Belmont Abbey.

And for all I know there may be a reader out there (or perhaps even one of our staff writers) who would qualify for this position at Belmont Abbey College. They're looking for "an individual with a broad, deep knowledge of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition who is able to teach classes on Catholic writers of the Southeast such as Flannery O'Connor and Walker Percy, on twentieth-century Catholic novelists such as Graham Greene and Evelyn Waugh, and on Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, and the Inklings." Are you a Catholic intellectual with an advanced degree that's going to waste? Would you like to have easy access to Gregorian chant and whitewater rafting? Get your application in!

I should have stayed in school.

I applied for the position you mention here, FYI. I actually was searching for references to the position when I found your site. I am still obsessing about it. It was cancelled, and I'm hoping it is reopened--indeed, I'm doing some summer reading with it in mind!

Wow. Sorry to hear it was cancelled. We'll get the Korrektiv prayer-warrior team pulling for you right away.
