Jewish Studies 2009-2010

Just out of curiosity, how many people are using this site? 17

Any way to place this on the first page of the academic wikis? Seems like the Religious Studies page is way more active, but less jobs listed.

You have to just switch them over.

Hard to find this page since the 2008/9 page is still up.

Why is the formatting of this page so screwed up?
