Roger Williams University - Assistant Professor, Latin American history
 * Acknowledgment of application received x4 (11/16)
 * phone interview scheduled (11/16)
 * Strange things happening with this job. They have searched for this position for at least the last three years. I had a phone interview two years ago that involved seven faculty from Roger Williams and a lengthy discussion about what constitutes the corpus for a Western Civ class on democracy (none of which coming from or dealing with Latin America). The interview went fine, but I never heard from them again. No notice that they went another direction, canceled the search, or anything. Nothing.
 * Received rejection by email (12/07) x 4; rejection received shortly after phone interview (12/07)
 * Rejection email sent in error (computer glitch) and "your application is still being reviewed" ? (12/07) x3 - these people are a mess.
