If you are a US candidate for this, forget it. Memorial sociology has a virtually categorical policy to hire only Canadian candidates.

That's not true for in sociology for comprehensive universities (like Memorial) in Canada. www.universityaffairs.ca/news/news-article/hiring-in-sociology/My rule of thumb is, if they (the Canadian university) does not advertise in the US, then they are looking to hire a Canadian candidate. If you are a US candidate for this, forget it. Memorial sociology has a virtually categorical policy to hire only Canadian candidates. Well then it is quite unique... Everyone else only hires Americans or Canadians who have studied elsewhere and look to come back. |

Their last soc hire was an American educated Canadian, for instance. If you aren't from Newfoundland or aren't at least familiar with it, I think it's likely that you might not be staying there ...

You should use a hyphen so that the reader won't misplace the modifiers in your statement. The meaning was entirely clear. Don't try to assert your "smartness" by being a pedant. It's pathetic. |

Thanks for the words of support, *annoyed by pedants*. I've been working on a comeback for 9 days and you've alleviated me of the burden.
I only hope I wrote that properly.
ZING! SWISH!
...
So, anyway ... bump.

So, anyway ... bump. Haha. So meta. Yes - I REALLY care about this school!! PLEASE tell me if the last hire was an American-educated Canadian or an American, educated Canadian. My career prospects hinge on the answer! |

Can anyone other than So confirm that the offers have been made and accepted? I'm still hopeful over here.

But an October deadline? I usually give up hope after 3 weeks.
It's over, Skeptical. I'm sorry.
