The Shakespeare Requirement

The Shakespeare Requirement: a Novel / Julie Schumacher, 308 p.

From the author of the delightful Dear Committee Members comes another year in the life of beleaguered English professor Jason Fitger.  As department chair, Fitger fears that he will preside over the total annihilation of his department at the hands of Roland Gladwell, the power-hungry econ prof who would like to wipe away Fitger's fiefdom to make more room for the higher 'quality' faculty in the Economics department.  Plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, some of them involving miniature donkeys, and a keen feel for the rhythms of campus life make this another enjoyable read.
