For those who thought the job market was ending... Note: This department is divided into two "areas" - sociology and political science. This position's home is with the sociologists. Also, not mentioned below, the campus is located two blocks from the beach. Seriously... two blocks. Google it. Not a heavy teaching load. A very nice VAP. As for the tenure business, that is a bit less clear. Better to think of it as a VAP.
