Even if you don't love the campus/area, how long is your program? 2-3 years? You can survive that easily.

Good points. Plus, it's awfully hard to turn down the teaching experience. I mean, I'm getting to teach two sections right off the bat. That doesn't happen in a lot of places.

I've got a literally a day or two to think about it. I'm going to do lot of walking, talking and thinking, that's for sure.
