 * 11-16 - asked for further writing samples (e-mail)
 * 11-17: any other applicants still waiting for acknowledgment of receipt of app?
 * A: Me too, haven't heard anything. Just out of curiousity, did they ask for specific writing samples?
 * (Geez, how many do they need?)
 * A: Nope, just asked for "further representative examples of your research", whatever that means. BTW, I'd never received any acknowledgment of my application either...
 * A: Oops, I lied. I received an email acknowledgement of receipt on 10/31.
 * B: Should be noted that writing samples were requested in the original advert, so those who included a lot of material might not be asked for more.


 * 11/12: committee has reviewed apps and drawn up short list of candidates
 * 11/22: Are we to infer from this that those asked for more materials are on the "short list"?? The chronology is a bit confusing (unless the previous post should have read "11/22")...
 * How did you learn about the short list? Is it because you were told this by the search committee, or do you have inside info? Just wondering.
