 * Hi all, Search Committee Member here. We will use this site to keep applicants informed of the progress of the search, particularly as deadlines approach and anxiety levels rise. Right now our plan is to conduct video or phone interviews prior the AHA. We do this so that the entire department can get to know those who make the first cut. A smaller group of faculty will travel to New York and meet again with candidates. I can't say I'll check this page on a daily basis, but if you have any questions, please feel free to post them and I'll answer those that I can.
