Information for Posters

PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE POSTINGS!
In order to edit an existing post simply add an update beneath the original.
Indent updates in 4-space increments so as to make the list easily decipherable.

Please remember to put type of position in brackets next to school:
i.e. (1-year Latin); (T-T Roman History); (Open Rank Greek Lit)
If one institution is advertising multiple positions, please list them on separate lines.

The following three "postings" are examples. See below for the real scoop!

Duke University (T-T Greek History)
APA interview notification - 12.01.07 Campus Visit arranged - 1.24.08 Job Offer - 3.12.08

Duke University (1-year VAP)
APA interview notifications - 12.13.07 Campus Visit - 2.12.08 Job Offered and accepted - 2.24.08

UMass Amherst (2-year VAP)
APA interview notification - 12.06.07 Campus Visit offer - 2.05.08 Job offer made by 2/20/08 Accepted by Jane Doe (PhD Institution/Current Employer)


A new idea: Since so many departments don't provide job applicants with the simple courtesy of letting them know by mail or e-mail that their applications were received, why don't we use this webpage as a way of noting for each other which programs have been sending out confirmations. That way, if you don't receive a confirmation from a place known to send them out, you'll have a chance to investigate, and possibly resend the materials. (And maybe this will also get the departments that don't bother to do this to rethink their policy.) Instead of adding a new line for each school, which would clutter things, I suggest just adding a symbol: how about "(+)"?

A second idea: It would be nice to know how many people are actually using this site (the more users, the more accurate it will be, so we should spread the word, in any case), and why. So, following the custom of other fields, I am adding a "user counter":

Add a number to the "wiki-counter" Do NOT change the counter for friends/colleagues.

I'm on the market: 35 I'm a lurker: 2 I'm so committed to the Lurker's Code that I refuse to respond even to this: 1 (actually, our code is more like guidelines)

If you find this wiki useful and think others would as well, then tell your fellow job-hunting classicists and allies about it. The more participants, and the more transparent the process, the better for all involved.

A third idea: Perhaps it would be better to report "official" communication only on this board (e.g., interview request, writing sample request, campus visit request, etc.) and confine the posting of rumors to Famae Volent?

AGREED! Let's maintain this site as it is now, and use the blog as a discussion board. If you look at other wikis, like some of the AHA sites, they are overrun with snark and rumors. Let's not go down that road here!

Thanks! That's the most affirmation I've gotten so far this job season! And thanks for pointing out the snarkiness of other boards: the AHA US/North America board is a real winner (esp. check out the bottom under General Discussion). I feel so lucky to be in Classics!

A fourth idea: Would it be possible for people to indicate by what means they received interview notifications? Perhaps (em) for email, (ph) for phone, or (sm) for snail-mail? It would make those of us who check our campus mailboxes infrequently less anxious, as well as providing general useful data. Thanks!

DISCUSSION, DECOMPRESSION & DETOX

Please limit comments on this wiki to verified, official communication (e.g., interview requests, writing sample requests, campus visit notifications, job offer etc.)
This is not to suggest that rumors, reactions to searches, kvetching, etc. ought to be silenced. Far from it! Transparency, information exchange, and plain old rumor-mongering can be extremely valuable. But, let's use the comments sections on Famae Volent for such matters. That site provides more anonymity, and has been established for these very purposes.

So, for rumors, reactions and discussions go HERE: link http://famaevolent.blogspot.com/
