Any word on this? Their deadline was a month ago and they're hiring 4 people so one would think they'd be getting things under way.

[Updating on this thread since the earlier one seems to have died]
From what I heard they have begun conducting phone interviews
I don't know when on-campus invites will begin, but I would assume it would be sooner rather than later
Given their faculty size, I wouldn't be surprised if they brought the post-phone-interview list before the entire faculty to vote on who comes on campus. If so, then it may depend on how fast they can get all the faculty together to vote.

Anyone have any info on this? Anyone have an on-campus interview scheduled?
(Going off this thread since it's the most recent)

I've got an interview scheduled in 2 weeks. Now, if I can just get an offer--I really want to be there!

Thanks, really appreciate the openness. Hoping the early asst/ABD is being scheduled later, given their large number of positions.

What's the rumor on why they are hiring so many people? A big donation? The Plague?

There was a huge conflict in the department between two factions. One side got a good brow beating by the admin, & a number resigned to seek greener pastures. That's why I am not applying there!

I heard it's because they are starting the PhD program, and need more people with the research/teaching skills to support it.
Security Check: politically correct

The heated debate about starting a Ph.D. program would be THE issue which has made 1-2 hires more like 5-6. You heard the G-rated version.

If the people left are those that wanted to PhD program, then good riddance to the others.

If you want to do the career equivalent of entering a long-term relationship with someone who is chronically abusive, your choice. I do hope that things work out well for you & that I'm being paranoid!
