"Prof. Croasdale writes Rieser to thank him for her recent promotion from “Research Assistant with the rank of Assistant Professor” to Assistant Professor with tenure. She does not hide the fact that she thinks the promotion is long overdue and her last promotion a bit of a farce when she says “It is very gratifying to be a Faculty member at last, with no strings attached, and to have a salary I can live on. I do like to get letters from you!”"
