I am the Interim Dean at Harlaxton College near Grantham, and I was given your name by Abi Hunt at Nottingham. We are rather urgently looking for someone to teach Astronomy-101 in our condensed summer session this coming June and, seeing that you have a robust
department including PhD students, I wonder if you might have someone who would be interested.</div>

The session runs for only two weeks, from June 3 to June 16. The Astronomy course is scheduled for 1:30-5:00pm on a total of seven class days plus a final exam block of the same time (which could be used for an exam plus other activities). There are also two
or three experiential learning field trips built into the course, and Harlaxton staff typically facilitate those in consultation with the faculty member.</div>
