cant tell....? what is tipping you?

--Visiting prof has right profile, identical to job ad

--I don't think it's an inside hire. I had a campus visit there last year, and they mentioned they would be hiring for this position the following year, and I didn't get that feeling. Always a possibility I guess.

This job is not posted on H-Net. Is this job posting a mistake? I can't find it anywhere.

Sorry about that, I thought it was on H-net. I looked at my cover letter and apparently it was on the Chronicle. Good luck!

Thanks, but I'm not on the market. I suppose I'm a Wiki lurker. This job is part of the Africana Studies program, not the Lit. Dept. I'm very familiar with UNCA, and I know it would be an incredible place to work, especially as director of the Africana Studies Program. Good luck to you!

No problem. Thanks for your warm wishes, have fun lurking :)

UNC-Charlotte

I have searched for the BU, Williams, and William and Mary jobs and haven't found anything -- could someone post a link?...

where are you looking? go to their websites-williams and bu have the info on their dept. page under news (but...deadlines have past), and WM has it on their job site. good luck
