Word on the Street

Any word on the Edward Said professor search at UCLA? Deadline was 11/1 (11/15).

Out of idle curiosity (since I'm not eligible): I heard that Stanford was going to be doing a senior search in Comp Lit this year, but I haven't seen a posting yet. Any idea if they'll be going ahead with that search this year? Or maybe they've decided to wait since UCLA is also doing a full prof search...

11/8 Tufts: Request for additional materials x2 **Any word on this yet? (12/1)

-12/08 zoom interview scheduled

any updates?

11/17 Penn State: Request for additional materials

-- any news on this?

--12/15 preliminary interview invite

--1/5 email rejection

--1/7 email rejection (post additional materials request, no interview request)

11/12 Tulane: Interviewed. Anyone hear back?

--nothing yet

--Any update about this search?

--Campus visit invites have gone out.

11/24: Not listed above, but anyone else apply to the position at Binghamton? Anyone have any news as yet?--------11/24: There are two for Binghamton: Lit of Global South and then Comparative European Thought. It seems early as deadline was Nov 15. ---- 11/25: I applied for the Global South one and haven't heard anything yet. (x2 – 12/2) Still no news on the Global South job? (12/9) Still nothing here (12/16) ---11/26 :the AfAm search asked for extra materials about a week and a half ago. [AfAm search? Surely not a Comp Lit search, right?] 12/05: Any news about the Comparative European Thought job? 12/8: still no news on the Comp Euro Thought job 12/16: Still no news here 12/20: Has anyone's references heard from the CET job? This search must be moving very slowly. 12/20: No news on CET job. They are probably sifting through 100s of applications. 12/21: Received request for rec letters for CET job. J/c: Did this go out to everyone? Email made no mention of a "next stage," just that apps are now being reviewed. 12/22: No request received to date. 12/22 Interview scheduled (x2) 12/27: is the request for interview for the global south or CET search? 12/27: CET.

11/30: Anyone heard anything from the FIT job?-----11/30: No news here. Same- no news here (12/3) No news here either (12/8)--12/9: Anglophone/Postcolonial Lit board says that FIT campus visits have already happened.

Utah Assistant Prof (Lecturer)

--12/19: Had Zoom interview on 12/16. Campus interviews will be scheduled for late Jan/early Feb. 1/2: On-campus interviews in the process of being scheduled. Invitations sent.

12/23: Not exactly Comp Lit, but probably the closest thing to it -- anyone have news about the UCSC History of Consciousness job? I don't remotely think I have a shot at it, but it would be a relief to hear of someone getting an interview so I could officially cross it off my list.

--1/9: HistCon plans to have short list interviews for both senior & junior positions in late February

--1/11, HistCon: On another website there is information stating requests for interviews will be sent by the end of January. End of January, end of February? I do not know.

I've also been curious about this one - applied but have not heard. I imagine it's done.

12/24: Has anyone heard anything about the Comparative Modernisms job at UCSD? 12/29: Nothing here.

1/5: also curious if anyone knows if UCSD has moved onto interviews

1/7: no news here either... (x2)

1/10: Any updates on the Comp Lit search at Howard University? -- 1/11 No news here
