Durham University (deadline 1/2) Assistant Professor in Music Analysis


 * "We received applications to the post from a wide range of countries and we were impressed with the applicant quality, which was very high.  However,we are strongly committed to increasing the diversity of our Department and in this respect, we regrettably observed that our advertisement had not attracted a sufficiently diverse pool of applicants.  For instance, only 16% of the applicants were female, whereas the benchmark in this sector (UK Music Departments) is 37%.  We also felt that the short timeframe between the opening date and the closing deadline might have been a contributing factor.  We have therefore decided tore-advertise the post (open date 20 November 2019 and closing 02 January 2020)."

School-Specific Discussion
UT-Austin
 * In a composition seminar on Monday 9/30 that was held as an open forum for students, faculty, and alumni to discuss recent allegations against Dan Welcher, a member of the composition faculty mentioned that he is "committed to hiring a woman" in an effort to diversify the department.
 * (10/6) I'm sure that potential applicants for the job really appreciate hearing this. Why can't they just say that they're committed to hiring a candidate who isn't a predator and demonstrates a commitment to these values??
 * (10/6b) because you can't prove an absence. If a candidate's potential for sexual misconduct is an overarching determinant for hiring, naturaly the committee would gravitate towards candidates who come from a constituancy historically shown to be far less likely to engage in such activity.
 * (10/6c) I see. Should potential candidates address their "potential for sexual misconduct" in their cover letters, then? Or as a separate two-page statement? Surely there must be a way to make this a fair hiring process!
 * (10/7 formerly known as 10/6b) I don't know. I don't really see how, when a music faculty job becomes political fodder to undo a #Metoo embarrasment it can be expected to produce a non-controvertial choice. But there we have it - hardly the first tainted search in history...
 * (10/8) The OP writes that a single faculty member is "committed to hiring a woman," and already we have a barage assumptions. 1) No search is performed by a single member of the faculty; and 2) there are likely other reasons, such as those mentioned in the above thread (e.g. making sure there's equitable hiring), for why a faculty would be committed to hiring a woman and this situation provided the opportunity to make a new hire. I would do everything in my power not to hire someone who distills repeated sexual harassment and abuse from a person in a position of utmost influence and power as a "#metoo embarassment" regardless of gender.
 * OP: Yes, exactly. It was a single composition faculty member who made this statement, it was in front of the Director of the BSoM, the Dean of the College of Fine Arts, and many current students and some alumni. I'm sure what he meant is that he will be a primary advocate for a woman in the position, and this came up during a specific sidebar about the decades of the school's male-dominated department and the situation worsening on that front after the first investigation in the early 2000s, but I wanted to make sure to share the info I had in case it was useful to all who were interested.
 * (10/22) If that comment was made out loud in public, it is a breach of fair hiring law. It compromises the search, and it should be reported to the administration.
 * OP: Why report when the comment was made in front of the two highest members of the adminstration, the Dean of CoFA and the Director of the BSoM?
 * (10/24) I suppose that by "useful" you mean that candidates who don't identify as female shouldn't bother applying, because the committee is less likely to consider them. This is all in advance of the application deadline, and if it's designed to deter candidates from applying in the first place, it is inappropriate, no matter who was present for the remark.
 * OP: I get all that... that's not why I felt it was useful to post here. I thought it was useful to post because I found the comment completely out of line. While it remained in the room it was privilaged information and I think more people needed to know that it was said.

Berklee College of Music:
 * This position was open just two years ago, and Berklee has posted at least two additional positions in Composition over the past two years. Does anyone know what's up with the department?
 * I live on the East Coast (not Boston though) but - this is my wild guess/speculation - Berklee is known for 1) being a bit on the heavy side when it comes to workload for faculty, because they have no TA and grading and teaching is all on faculty members, and 2) having a quite enormous faculty (I know this because I applied for a job a few years ago and got the chance to notice that). So, 2 is really a consequence of 1 - if there's no TA given the size of the school, I imagine  it would make sense to have a lot of faculty members, and that statistically means more frequent changes. So, it could just be very normal? As far as this position, I don't know much but I assume it's more admin?
 * There is also no tenure, from what I understand, which will inherently increase turnover.
 * Yep, I also heard everybody is by untenured contract there, not sure about the details though.
 * Hi, comp fac member here. Our pay and teaching load public here: https://www.berkleefacultyunion.org/documents turnover-- last few years we had a few deaths and retirements. One PT fac got a FT gig elsewhere, but FT members tend to stay put. Yes, it's a high teaching load, though Berklee community offers lots of networking/ collaboration opps, plus lots of new music happening in Boston. This is mostly an admin position, but if you're a smart, kind, organized composer person, go for it! I've found that comp opps come my way just having this fac title, so maybe it will hold true for new hire as well. Peace, all.
 * Hello, another faculty here - just +1 what my colleague said. If you like numbers, it's not a bad job, and Berklee is quite a nice environment. Just figured I would share my understanding of the job (but I'll ask my colleague to correct me if I am wrong) - basically you teach 1-2 classes per semester, and the rest is basically admin: scheduling for faculty, organizing visiting artists, meeting with students (a lot) and pretty much work with the chair. I believe this is also a M-F 9-5 job, including summer, with some flexibility (you can probably take some days off). Hope this helps!
 * This has got to be the most frustrating application systems that I have ever dealt with. It didn't parse my CV in any sensible way so I had to go back and change a bunch of information. Workaday randomly reorders my entries and each time I look at the final page before hitting submit, everythng is out of order (and out of order in a different way each time!). Are others having these problems? Hopefully HR will forward the attachements to the search committee.

Juilliard
 * Now that someone has attempted to gripe about a job going to a particular person even before it's happened, I must remind everyone, as I do every year: Institutions can hire anyone they want for any reason or for no reason, and they are not obliged to tell anyone why.  In fact, they are not require to even have the search.  Many of the elite or at least private schools simply hire a person they want to hire.  Do you expect Juilliard--the most famous music school in the US--to conduct a "search" and try to find who they think is best?  They can do what they want.  Period.  The sooner you understand this, the better off you will be.

Peabody
 * NB: There is also a keyboard skills job at the rank of "assistant professor of music theory." Unsure whether that belongs here or not.
 * If one were interested in/qualified for both the theory and the theory/skills position, would it look bad to apply to both, tailoring a separate cover letter for each? (Would it look even worse to send the same cover letter for both?)
 * It looks like they might be almost the same job, but advertised in different venues, which is confusing.  A short email query to search chair(s) is justified.
 * The jobs were posted on Facebook (by Peabody faculty) as three separate positions
 * Hi All, I’m the Chair of Theory, Ear Training, and Keyboard Skills here at Peabody. We have three separate positions open: One teaching the UG theory core and graduate seminars, one teaching ear training and related courses, and one teaching Keyboard Skills within the larger context of our theory curriculum. We welcome applications for all three from any and all interested and qualified parties.
 * Sorry--I meant the theory/ear training position. I imagine most of us are qualified for that as well as the theory-only position.
 * Does anyone know if the jobs advertised as "Assistant Professor" are actually tenure-track? Peabody only recently instituted traditional academic rank, from what I understand.
 * There is no tenure at Peabody. The recently instituted ranks correspond to 3- (assistant), 4- (associate), or 5- (full professor) year contracts.

SUNY Oneonta:
 * (8/22) This is the fourth time in the past five years that this Composition/Audio job has been posted. Does anyone know what's up?
 * (8/25) From what I understand, the department is a complete mess and the administration is dyfunctional.
