NOTES:

I just looked this posting up in the MLA JIL and it says the deadline is Nov. 15 (not Nov. 8 as stated above). I'm hesitant to change it though in case I have missed something and would be throwing off others' application timelines. Anyone else see what I see? Am I crazy?

Nope, you're not crazy. The JIL deadline is the 15th, but the deadline as posted on the CUNY site is November 8th. It's possible they might have extended it, but in lieu of actually calling the department and checking I'd go with the earlier date just to be sure.

OP here. Thanks for the reassurance -- this can be a nerve-wracking process, and an inconsistency like this just adds to the stress. I was able to send in my application by the earlier date, but I hope someone from Baruch is reading this and realizes that some other candidates who are just looking at the JIL might think they still have time to apply.

Any word?

No word yet.

Sorry to post this here, but there's no general discussion section. Did anyone apply to the childhood studies jobs at Brooklyn College or Rutgers-Camden? Was there any move on either? Any one receive a follow-up e-mail about the interview? I'm still waiting.
