University of Nebraska (19th Century, 11/1)
I'm just being paranoid because the UNL website kept crashing on me as I was applying. So ALL they are asking for at this point is our cover letter and CV right? They didn't ask for letters of reference or a writing sample....did they? Again, I had a lot of trouble with this website so I'm just double checking with "all y'all!"
 * As far as I know, you are absolutely correct -- they just want the CV and cover letter at this point.
 * Tis the season to be paranoid.
