ALERTS

 * "INTERVIEW SCHEDULED" notes in bold are NOT reliable, especially those alleging interviews scheduled on the 30th and not corroborated by more than one person.  At least one of the notes are for a school that definitely HAS NOT yet scheduled interviews.  #sickhoax
 * the person is now doubling back and placing x2 on her/his alleged interview requests #silly
 * I do not think it is possible to trust this list at this point. Yesterday Williams had one interview scheduled now it is x3. I was in direct contact with the chair yesterday who informed me that they have NOT scheduled interviews.
 * ​Thanks for checking on this. The pattern of edits did seem highly suspicious. All edits by IP address 69.141.35.10 have been reverted and the user has been blocked for inserting false information into the page. Una74 (talk) 18:24, December 2, 2012 (UTC)

NOTES:

Their Chronicle ad posted today (11/14) is inconsistent with their JIL ad in terms of when review starts (Oct 2 vs Nov 15). http://chronicle.com/jobs/0000755422-01/. There have been several errors with this program's ads.

Baruch is in Manhattan. It's safe to say that Hurricane Sandy has thrown them off schedule, and that they've reposted with a revised deadline as a result.

Sure, except the ad they just posted yesterday has an earlier deadline than any of the ads they've posted.
