NOTES & QUERIES:
 * Also posted at European History 2017-18
 * Anyone want to weigh in on what "Advanced Assistant Professor" might mean? My impression is that they want to hire someone who already has a TT position, or maybe VAP...
 * "Advanced" means they want someone who has been in another position for several years, usually TT, but possibly VAP could count. It means they probably don't want to consider "beginning" candidates (ABD or very new PhD). [9/22]
