Discussion

Is there another page that people are using for the 2008-2009 search?

-There must be. There are no updates here at all. Does anybody know? (11/13) -I don't think so -- I'm applying to a number of world positions, but haven't heard a peep. Let's update as we begin to hear responses? I understand information will start to roll in in the next couple of weeks. -(12/2) I don't think there is another page this year. The wikihost.org academic job sites seem to be closed down this year.
