Postings in Physical Anthropology 08-09

Let's try to keep things under each corresponding school instead of listed by progress.

It would be great to see more people using this page so if you can pass the URL to any friends in the field it would help us all!

Also, as the season wraps up it would be great if people returned to post that an offer had been made and accepted or rejected.
