DePauw University
9/8 - Is this year's theory/comp position replacing the 1-year theory VAP from last year? When was it advertised? The 2-week deadline seems very short.
 * It was posted on HigherEdJobs yesterday (9/7) which is where I saw it (and re-posted to the wiki). It's possible that it was up on the DePauw website earlier.
 * (9/9) It is indeed a rather quick deadline for a 2016 position especially considering that candidates must submit a ton of material: "graduate transcripts, teaching philosophy, scholarly/creative interest statement, samples of scholarly writing, web links to recordings and/or scores, and evidence of teaching effectiveness, including peer evaluations and official (non-excerpted) student evaluations (if available)." Ugh. Who has peer evaluations of teaching effectiveness laying around? How many qualified candidates won't apply just because of the trouble of getting this stuff together? Then again, perhaps that's exactly the intention.
 * Given this infomration, very likely this is an inside candidate.  I estimate at least 50% of the jobs are for predetermined candidates.
