[2005-11-20] To prevent too many comments from building up, periodically a new post that summarizes all the comments will be placed at the top of the blog; to view old comments, see the previous post, which contains rumors up until November 12, 2005.
[2005-11-20] To prevent comments being lost, please post all rumors here rather than on the individual rumor postings. Comments have been turned off on these postings.
[2005-11-20] Please use discretion when posting rumors of offers or acceptances; if possible, only post an offer if it is public knowledge.
Got a rumor on which school have invited candidates to interviews or have sent out job
offers? Post a comment here. Names of candidates are not necessary, but can be useful.
Please include some information on the source of your knowledge that will allow others to evaluate your information. Are you a member of the department interviewing? A friend or colleague of a candidate? Please be as specific in your information and sources as possible (while maintaining anonymity if you wish).
Want to see a list of jobs?
See the IR
Job List Fall 2006 entry.
Note: The Institution links will take you to the original job posting; the Rumors link will take you to the rumor posting. If there is a link but no date in the Rumors column, no substantive information (e.g., a list of interviewees) has been received; dates are updated when new rumors appear. The table is sorted from most recent to oldest rumor.
[C] appears next to dates when additional posts appear to
confirm an initial rumor of interviews. If you have independent
confirmation of interviews being conducted at a university that does
not have a [C] or a list of candidates, please
post a comment. A [?] appears if information disputing a rumor of
interviews has occurred.
If you have complaints, comments, or suggestions (about this
blog), please post a comment on the IR
Rumor Mill Discussion post rather than here. If you would like to
complain or discuss the job market itself, please post a comment on the

Can't believe that Biziouras didn't get the position. He's at least short-listed at Notre Dame and Virginia. In the spirit of support for good work, one can only hope for a better outcome than this.
[Moved from University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill 2005-12-06]
I don't believe that the Lustick talk is a job talk.
