I don't know if there are any fellow Greg Ward fans here on the board--I feel as if his name has come up before, at least with our Chicago contingent--but Indiana University just announced that he'll be teaching here starting this fall.  He'll replace Walter Smith III, who was amazing, but who lives in California with his family and landed a job much closer to home:

Really psyched to have him here--I heard him a few years ago with Mike Reed at the Bishop and bought his then-current CD South Side Story.  NPR just aired a review of his new album.
