 * Looks like last year's failed search with a shift from Assistant to Associate/Full.
 * Did anyone ever learn why the search failed last year? Did a first choice accept another job? I know they could not have received any shortage of strong applications, so perhaps they decided along the way that they wanted a more senior person?
 * Their first choice accepted a different TT job. I'm not certain what happened beyond that point.
