A good liberal arts college in the northeast has engaged a software
engineer from NeXT to help faculty and students become better critical
thinkers.  The college is advertising for academicians who would like
to take advantage of the technology.  As a PC/VMS/unix user with some
Pascal familiarity, I am interested in applying for one of these positions.
But I know little about NeXT, living in a rural area not easily accessible
to hardware representatives (I work at a branch campus, not downtown Pbgh).
Could anyone take a moment to tell me what sort of technology NeXT can offer
higher education (specifically in the areas of literature and composition)?
I'd like to try to determine whether my present experience is in line with
what this college may want.  Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
