General Discussion
Just seen that the tenure-track post at Harvard was advertised this year - anybody know where? Did I just miss it or was it not advertised widely?? Any links to archived sites on details of the post?

It was a joint English/Film position that was canceled early in the process (before interviews) and postponed to this year.

Darn it, that means I missed the deadline - was keeping an eye out for it but must have just missed it coming up on the CHE. How long was it advertised for?

Just a correction: The Harvard position was not English/Film. It's in their Visual and Environmental Studies Dept.

Anybody receive receipt confirmations from Ohio U, Ohio St. U, or U Wisconsin Milwaukee yet? It looks like Ohio U already has scheduled interviews? No, but UWM and OSU were planning to phone candidates by the end of Oct./First week in Nov.

Any news on U of Michigan's media positions? I received an acknowledgement, but have heard no more.

Has anyone heard anything about the SUNY Stony Brook job?

U. of Virginia assistant professor job in Media Studies has been canceled b/c of budgetary issues. Received email on 11/5
