apologies if I'm reposting this ad. I didn't see it anywhere already, but maybe I missed it. I have a question, though:
Anybody else notice this? This job was up on higheredjobs some time ago, with a November deadline. All of a sudden it, along with 2 other jobs at UWSP, appeared in the asa job bank with a January deadline? Anybody happen to know what the deal is? They don't like the current applicant pool or they just didn't realize that it hadn't yet been listed with ASA and thought it should be for some reason ?
