Physical Anthropology 08-09

Postings in Physical Anthropology 09-10

Has been updated to reflect the 2009-10 job search. If you are still checking on the status of 08-09 jobs, you were not hired.

Let's try to keep things under each corresponding school instead of listed by progress. Listings should be alphabetical by university.

It would be great to see more people using this page so if you can pass the URL to any friends in the field it would help us all!

Also, as the season wraps up it would be great if people returned to post that an offer had been made and accepted or rejected.
