Art History 2008-2009

This page is for Art History searches taking place during 2008-2009, for jobs with start dates in fall 2009. See also the pages for last year and next year.

The categories here correspond to those on the CAA Job Database page.

There is room for discussion on the talk page.

To the person who keeps deleting useful information from this page -- HELLO? Is that really the kind of person you want to be? Go ahead and move irrelevant material to the talk page, but silently deleting useful comments with no explanation is the mark of the kind of twisted, parasitic soul that we all hope grad school doesn't make us into. Let's hope it's not too late for you, and try some self-examination to see if this really makes you feel good about yourself and the kind of person you are.

E-mail confirmation that application received and that they have "begun the review process" (2/25) x3 (hmm odd to send out when they're interviewing at CAA) FWIW, last year they did not interview at CAA. Applicants received invitations to on-campus interviews, which I believe took place in late March.

 * On-campus visit scheduled: 3/17 [Is this for real? Sorry for being a bit jaded after the claim of CAA interviews last month! Anyone else hear anything? Thanks.]  3/19 Original campus-visit poster here.  It does appear to be for real - or else I'm out airfare to NYC!  The interviews are, remarkably, only 30 minutes long with 15 minutes for HR stuff.  Maybe I should have said "on-campus interview"?   Anyway,  I have no idea what that CAA bit is about up there.  Hope this helps.
 * Yes, that does help. Thank you and good luck!
 * Thanks!  I'd be curious if anyone else knows more about this process, i.e., how many they interview, how they select, etc.
 * last year they interviewed three i believe, in early april, for only one position. how they select, god knows!
 * does somebody know something about the other open position at Columbia, the Director of MA studies in Critical and Curatorial Studies? Why is it not on this list?
 * re: non tenure Columbia Director MA Program, interviews set up in early April (to accommodate the Columbia Renaissance search).  Anyone know how many candidates, pretty please?

Smith College
Where did they advertise this job? It never showed up in the listings I saw... It was on SAH in Oct/Nov. I think it is a design and history position It was on CAA (as 19th/early 20th). (Sorry but I really hate this Wiki format-- I didn't think this was the same job as the one I applied for.) Asked for letters and syllabi in mid-December. They're putting together a short list for CAA or phone interviews. (3/6: Has anyone heard anything? 3 campus visits are supposed to all happen _next_week_!) Unless they changed the dates, I'm guessing we didn't make the cut--bummer, since it would have been a fantastic job.

DePauw University, East Asian Art
Same here. Heard nothing from them (3/6). They were really nice people -- but that's all.
 * Application Deadline: 20 November 2008
 * Phone Interviews Scheduled:
 * CAA Interview Scheduled: 12/18 (via email)  Does anyone know how many people they interviewed at CAA?
 * Campus Visit Scheduled:Did anyone get an on campus interview?  If you do, can you tell what your area is?
 * Offer Made:
 * Offer Accepted By:
 * I interviewed at CAA and they claimed they would be doing campus interviews the week of March 9.  Since that's next week, I would say that those of us who don't hear anything by end of day tomorrow (3/6), can perhaps think we didn't make it to the campus interview.   I really liked these people and felt my interview went well, so did two others who interviewed there.  Perhaps they're just kind and engaged people.   But the more I hear from others on the market this year, the more I realize that there are several people in the mix for this year's job market who already have good TT jobs elsewhere and, for whatever reason, are looking to move.  With any luck, with so many available positions, schools wont all invite  the same 3 candidates for campus interviews.  Good luck to all as we wait for news.

Yet, perhaps their decisions and setting up interviews is taking longer than they anticipated. . . wouldn't be the first time a search didn't run like clockwork. Still hoping for some good news.

Thanks for the information. I did not hear from them either (3/7). I dont think their decisions on setting up interviews takes longer. I went to their department webpage and saw that they already put three interview events on their academic calendars......

Thanks for spotting the info on their calendar. Oh well. At least it's good to know to cross this one off my list.

Northwestern University, East Asian Art
(Canceled now because of successful senior Near Eastern hire? Anyone know?) No. Ancient Near Eastern hire resulted in the appointment of Professor Ann Gunter. A completely separate line/position. See http://www.wcas.northwestern.edu/arthistory/faculty/gunter.htm Just FYI, Sarah Teasley in Japanese Art appears to now be at Royal College of Art and not Northwestern (per her CAA presentation). This might suggest they are looking for a Japan-oriented person, just speculation. Anyone with local info?
 * Application Deadline: 1 December 2008

your are probably right, I am in Chinese art and received the rejected letter (3/1).


 * For what it's worth, Sarah Teasley is definitely now on staff at the RCA (in their design program).

Those of you who got interviews with U. Utah, may I ask what your areas are- modern or contemporary Asia. I hear that is what they are looking for. Good luck!

I interviewed with them at CAA, most of the conversation was about research approaches. Clearly the ability to teach mod/cont Asian art would be a plus, but they seem to be interviewing people across a wide range of research foci (pre-modern as well as more mod/cont). Both interviewers falrly new to the dept so this decision might take a while as other faculty chime in with their thoughts in post-CAA meetings.

Case Western Reserve University, Asian Art

 * Campus Visit Scheduled: 3/6 (via email)
 * Offer Made:
 * Offer Accepted By:

those who got interviewed, could you share some insights? positive or negative about the interviewers?

Great interview, nice people, all fairly senior members of the dept. Again, this job is drawing not only recent PhDs but those already ensconced in good TT jobs looking to move to Case Western. The CMA collection is the obvious draw for most of us. Pre-modern emphasis including the ablity to teach China, Japan, Korea, India seems important here. Ability to produce a book for tenure is also of paramount importance as at all research schools. Decisions on campus interview invites might be going out this week (ending 3/6) since they are off on Spring break next week. Fingers crossed for everyone, good luck.

CMA won't open until 2012, any expectation in working with curators at the Museum?

is anyone getting the campus interview? if don't mind sharing. (see above)

Three candidates were scheduled to campus interviews--1st week and 3rd week of April. All the candidates are very junior, recently graduated.

Campus Interviews for this actually began the 3rd week of MARCH, just to clarify.

How was your interview experience with the A.H. dep't at JCU? I thought the guys were friendly, but Linda was a bit distant and uninterested.

Linda and Leslie live together, but pretend not-related to each other. Good-luck to those got interviews and offered to campus visit!

I thought this opening is for African or Pre-Columbia? They advertised for "traditional art of Asia, Sub-saharan Africa, or Ancient Americas"

Course load is 3/3, with 2 courses per semester teaching survey of world art. Survey of Western art, I think.

Has anyone heard anything from these guys after CAA?

Not me. Will they do campus interviews?

four candidates are invited to campus interview from last week of March and 1st week of April.

Rumors are flying. - I received an acknowledgment letter dated 1/9/09 saying that the search committee is reviewing applications and will be in touch by February 9th at the latest - I'm not sure if only UMass-Amherst has a hiring freeze or if it's the entire UMass system (1/27) The search is still on because they are scheduling interviews.
 * Application Deadline: Jan. 16th

Any idea what the situation is for those applicants not attending CAA? That is, anyone not attending CAA receive an interview invite? Just curious how this works for those of us not going to CAA in general for any job (if there is any general rule of thumb, that is). They usually schedule phone interviews after CAA for those not attending.

Nope; it's only been a week since my interview. Give 'em time (2/13).  Yes, I'm being impatient, but their schedule (pre-CAA job offer) implies that campus visits should have been arranged quickly.  Maybe they're not keeping to the schedule, or maybe they've contacted others.  Bummer?  (2/17) (different poster-- I thought their pre-CAA offer timeline sounded pretty fantastical.

I interviewed for this job last year at CAA when it was posted as an adjunct only. I asked at the time if the job could be upgraded to tenure track. They said yes. They have since hired an adjunct before listing it this year as a tenure track position. To anyone applying please be advised that you may be up against an inside track candidate who's already worked there this year as an adjunct.

Anyone would tell you that being an adjunct is much more of a disadvantage than an advantage when the position is "upgraded" to a tenure-track position!!

Feb 3rd - Fair warning, though a risk worth taking! FWIW, I interviewed for the temp position last year, too, and found the folks at App State congenial and professional.

True they appear so. It is just that their administration is terrible. Feb 10-They are searching for a Chair this year again? Anybody knows about this?

2/17 : Don't know about their admin/chair situation, but I am wondering about the search. What's that "Jan. 16 (phone)" about? I didn't interview with them until February. Anybody hear anything new?

(3/15) Do you know who got it? Hallie Franks was not even among the three who came to campus. (3/18) Who were the three campus visits?

Providence College, Providence, RI: Renaissance and Baroque Art (1400-1750)
Rejection e-mail upon query. A pool of candidates has been selected -- you lucky ones should be hearing from them soon. (3/12; not soon enough! SC told me that she would be calling references this week, so maybe she is still doing that for the selected pool (3/13); decided to get rid of that weird scroll box, and still no word.... (3/18) Me, either. Either their timeline is slowing down or none of the five of us get to write a mash note to the Dominicans, and that's statistically unlikely. (3-18) I had been told that updates would be given in mid-March or slightly thereafter.  (3/21) I am not one of them, but finalists have begun to be contacted. (3/22) How did you get this info? (3/23:) I was asked to write a statement, due ten days ago. I have not heard any updates since. Has anyone else? (3/23) No, but my understanding was that the president and maybe another person would review them.  Good luck. (3/23) Thank you. You too! I will be sure to update here if I hear anything, and hope others continue to do the same.

Tyler School of Art/Temple University: Northern Renaissance-Northern Baroque Art, 1400-1750
Is this search still on? - I heard from the Dean of Tyler that the position has guaranteed funding, even though the rest of the school is on a hiring freeze; however, the faculty have been without a contract for quite sometime and there is a lot of antagonism between the union and the administration (1/27) Sounds fun (1/29)I received a letter today (1/29) stating that the position had been offered and a candidate accepted the offer.

I see that English and History both scheduled campus interviews about two weeks ago. Sounds like they have a final list of candidates already. But did any art historians get a campus interview yet? (1/31)

Heard that at least one Art Historian was brought for campus visit.

Does this information come from a reliable source?

I didn't post the info about the campus visit, but I heard that there was no art historian brought to campus. I'm not sure which source is more reliable.

An art historian was definitely brought to campus.

UC San Diego: Early Modern Art Historian (1600-1900)
Does the ad for a 1-year position mean this search is officially over? (1/27/09) No. The UCSD job web site lists two separate searches - the temporary one is actually part of a search for a pool of lecturers in a variety of fields. The TT job is still listed, as well. (1/27) hmm, has anyone heard anything? Not a peep - I wish these folks (not just UC San Diego, but all the rest) would get on the ball and schedule CAA interviews - I am waiting to buy my plane ticket until I know I will actually have someone to talk to in LA! (2/13) So it has been about three weeks since the positing about the email. Any news since? Zippo (3/7) Nothing here either. (3/9)
 * e-mail message from administrator indicating review is still underway, and a short list will be compliled in a week or so. (2/18) Q: Did you ask them about the state of the search or did they send out this email? Thanks. A: I wrote them requesting an update - it was not a BCC e-mail.

I checked the website. They are already conducting on-campus interviews. Drat!

(1/28: Anyone heard anything at all, either decisions or if it is canceled etc.?) I haven't heard anything about this search either--positive or negative. We are one week away from CAA, so perhaps it has been cancelled?  Well, at least it makes any rejection more palatable knowing that it wasn't a legitimate search to begin with.

 * Fundamentally polite, though faintly brusque and vaguely dismissive rejection letter received February the second - I guess they told all of us who were rejected that the "committee was impressed with our credentials" (2/2) This is normal, no? Should they tell us all that we are terrible candidates? (2/2) - Ha! I do appreciate the letter, though - it's so much better to hear something rather than the empty silence from all the other schools I applied to (2/3) Ummm...isn't a rejection inherently dismissive?
 * Received an identical rejection letter a month after the first one.  I get it.  You really, really don't want me! - I know! I just got another rejection letter today in the mail; They are really rubbing salt in the wound (3/9)  I was once rejected FOUR times  for the same job; one of the letters asked me "to join them in congratulating their new hire." Um, yeah.

 * Application Deadline: Jan. 5th--anyone heard anything from them? I suddenly got their affirmative action questionnaire 3/23, the first sign of life from them, which is odd seeing how it looks like they've scheduled a campus visit for someone else already. And... no sooner did that questionnaire get sent off than the rejection letter came. I have to say, this is the only rejection I've ever gotten that pronounced "you would not be well suited to the particular needs of the Department." Um, so all right, I'm not their favorite candidate, but this makes it sound like I should have known better than to apply in the first place. Did they say this to everyone who shows signs of being serious about their research as well as their teaching? (4/1) They said it to everyone--or all but 3 anyway--the "they" being their administrative temp. Seriously.
