 * This school is notorious for their strong preference for GWB, UT-A, and UW grads. Several people have said you need to have a personal or professional connection to someone on the search committee to get a invitation to campus. FYI- Almost always hire youth development and child welfare people despite other areas they claim to recruit. I've heard they prioritize candidates' connections over their actual job talk so network as much as you can! Also said they'll have a new dean next year.
 * Just FYI...last two years faculty hires had PhD's from UT-Arlington (2015), University of Southern California (2014), & Columbia University (2014).
 * Dean called to schedule a campus visit and I didn't attend any of those schools listed for my PhD (10/19)
 * I did a campus visit last year (took a different position; the vibe on the campus visit was very odd to me and didn't fit at all with my preferences for a position), but I also didn't attend one of the schools mentioned.
 * Same experience here for my campus visit. Glad to know I wasn't the only one that didn't fit the "profile"
 * DU is definitely getting a new dean next year. Last year's hire is a Macro person (specifically doing work in criminal justice policy), while 2014 brought in a person doing work on fathers from an intersectional lens, and someone else doing social network analysis specifically around substance use, HIV, and homeless young people. Not a ton of PYD or child welfare on faculty at the moment.

 * Post CSWE rejection email received on 10/21
 * List sent out DU GSSW students of 5 campus visits and the individuals visiting

 * Wouldn't hurt to ask if they will take other writing samples (e.g., dissertation chapter, pubs submitted for review) for those applicants who are more junior?
 * I submitted an application with unpublished writing samples because those are actually the best representation of my scholarship. Maybe my application will be dismissed in the first round, but one can't be considered at all if one doesn't apply
 * rejection email (11/23) X6

It's really strange- sent so many emails to the Chair of the Search Committee, but not one email got responded. Seems like they only look at graduates of high ranking schools. I doubt  if they even look at applications from lower tier schools.
