[2005-12-17] 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 posts from [October 16-November 17] and [November 18-December 17], which contain old comments.
[2005-12-17] New column added to list whether a job has been filled (and by whom if the information exists).
[2005-12-03] An increasing number of Comparative Politics posts are being made. While only posts that refer to jobs in the IR Job List Fall 2006 will be added to the master table below, contributors should feel free to post information about CP jobs, since there is substantial overlap.
[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).

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.

what is going on with the Bay Area schools (UC Berkeley, UC Davis, UC Santa Cruz)?
Does anybody have news on Richmond's Europe search?
A highly reliable source has informed me that the position at Trinity (Hartford) has been filled. I noticed that the IR jobs at Clemson and Alabama have not been listed. They were posted earlier this fall on ejobs, but are no longer listed.
Many jobs that were on ejobs are now gone because their posting expired close to the deadline. It doesn't mean that they are filled yet. I know this because I was contacted about a job and when I went to look at the ad again, it was gone.
Brett Benson (Duke 2006) joins Vanderbilt:
http://sitemason.vanderbilt.edu/psci/faculty#benson
I heard that Reed isn't going to make offers to any of their 3 candidates -- true? Know what their plans are?
Reed interviewed three candidates: Emily Beaulieu (UCSD), Alex Montgomery (Stanford), and (I believe) Craig Borowiak (Duke, teaching at Haverford), although that may have been for Reed's theory position. Montgomery was offered the IR position and has accepted.
A note: While jobs that have expired on APSA ejobs cannot be found through searching, direct links still work. For example, most of the job postings on the IR Job List Fall 2006 can still be accessed through the APSA elisting link at the beginning of the posts; e.g., the APSA elisting link in the University of Nebraska-Omaha post, which cannot be found through searching ejobs, will show up through the direct link. Jobs as far back as Fall 2003 can be retrieved this way.
The jobs on the IR Job List Fall 2006 post were updated roughly weekly and were based on field of specialization = "International Relations" on APSA or CPSA. Some may have been missed.
Interesting about the MIT offers.
Any word on hires in other fields?
On Richmond's Europe search: the offer was made to Willem Maas (Yale PhD, ass't Prof, non-tenure track at NYU). Maas apparently has not yet decided whether to accept.
Does anybody have news on Western Washington's search?
UC Davis closed its institutions search without hiring anyone after interviewing three people.
Holger Schmidt (Columbia) has accepted the transnational security position at George Washington University (Elliott School). The department decided not to make an offer for its general international security position.
Michigan IPE has established a short list and invited candidates out for talks.
Western Washington had a long short list a couple months ago, narrowed it down to a 6-person short list a month ago and called the first three people for interviews (probably in early December). No idea if they made a decision.
Idean Salehyan (UCSD) has accepted an offer from North Texas.
any info about Emory?
Emory has made an offer to a candidate. I'm not sure if the candidate has accepted yet.
I heard Emory had offered their job to Idean Salehyan.
That's not true: Emory did not offer the job to Saleyhan.
Has anyone heard anyting about the job openings at the University of Utah (IR and CP)? They interviewed 4 IR and 4 CP candidates. The faculty meeting was last week.
Does anyone know who got the IR and CP jobs at Madison? Last thing I heard was that they interviewed senior candidates only.
Thad Dunning got an offer from Wisconsin.
Another question: does anybody know what happened with Pitt's search(es)? Have they made offers?
That is interesting about MIT; looks like they're going on a hiring binge.
Any information on the Comparative searches at Ohio State?
Univ of Delaware extended an offer to their top candidate for the IO position, and the candidate just accepted.
I heard Texas A&M has an offer and acceptance on at least one of the IR jobs.
Any chance you could disclose who accepted TAMU's offer?
I just heard that another candidate rejected an offer from Kentucky -- their fourth rejected offer.
I just heard that Pittsburgh did not make any offers. It seems that the department cannot make up their mind like last year.
You "just heard" wrong about Pitt.
Please enlighten us then: does Pitt have offers out right now, have they been accepted, or what?
I heard that Pitt made an offer to Bridget Coggins (Ohio State) but I have no idea whether she accepted the offer.
What is going on with Vanderbilt?
Just to clarify: I heard that Pittsburgh did not make an offer for their CP-Europe job opening. Briget Coggins seems to be for the IR job.
Just to clarify: The comment on Pittsburgh not making an offer was in regard to their CP-Europe job opening. I should have said this in my posting.
Miami University (Oxford, Ohio) made an offer and the candidate accepted.
Clemson has invited candidates in for their IR slot.
Do you know who took the Delaware job?
I am curious, who did Pitt invite for the CP-EU position?
I know that they interviewed 4 people for the CP-EU position at Pittsburgh. One of them was Rebecca Oliver (PhD Candidate at Northwestern).
On the Richmond Europe search: it seems to me that the position is still open since they contacted people on their long short list asking if they are still available. They are considering bringing in 1 or 2 more candidates to campus.
Vandy has at least one offer out right now. I heard it is to Michaela Mattes.
Kyle Beardsley (UCSD) has accepted an offer from Emory.
UVa made an offer and they expect the candidate to accept.
Virginia's offer was in fact accepted by Todd Sechser (Stanford).
Does anyone know what is going on at Yale/Comparative Politics? Have they made any offers?
Has anyone heard anything about the IR search at Alabama?
Yale has made an offer. I don't know if it was accepted - I think not.
The CP offer at Yale is also to Dunning.
Any information on Yale's Japanese Politics position?
Anyone know what is going on with Dartmouth's IR search?
Rumor has it that Dartmouth (IR) extended an offer to Bridget Coggins.
I heard interviews still occurring in January at Dartmouth
Does that mean no offer to Coggins? Or are there multiple positions at Dartmouth?
Just received a letter (dated December 19) saying the IR slot at the University of Georgia has been filled. Anyone know who filled it?
Does anyone know whether Coggins accepted the offer from Dartmouth?
Coggins did get an offer. No information on any other details (acceptance, other interviews, or anything else).
Does anyone know what happened with McGill's EU search?
And Michigan? I heard that Kurizaki interviewed there. Who else?
CSU Northridge has made an offer.
didn't kurizaki take TAMU's offer?
UW-Oshkosh has made an offer and expects the candidate to accept.
Jonathan Rodden of MIT is interviewing at Chicago this week.
Anyone heard anything about Middlebury or Bowdoin?
Bowdoin made an offer; I don't know anything more.
Kurizaki and McLean accepted TAMU offers.
Tonya Putnam (Stanford) received an offer from Columbia. Congrats, Tonya!
Re: Middlebury -- In early December I heard they had made an offer to Sechser (Stanford). But a previous post said he was going to Virginia...so they may have made another offer by now.
Any news on Georgia Tech?
Middlebury did make an offer to Amy Oakes from Ohio State.
Putnam has a job talk at UCLA
Third-hand, I heard U Colorado made an offer to Moonhawk Kim (Stanford).
Who got the Delaware job?
Has anyone heard anything about Auburn?
Barnard (CP) made an offer and the candidate accepted.
Middlebury is calling candidates for interviews. Don't know if the Oakes information is correct or premature.
Who did Barnard hire? If the candidate has already accepted, I don't see the harm in releasing the name.
Or, for that matter, the anonymous hirees at Carleton, DePaul, Dickinson, Trinity, Delaware, and Miami. Unless they're planning on censoring the course catalogs, these will all be public knowledge shortly... we should at least be able to celebrate the successes of the job market while adding to our rejection piles...
Does anyone know whether Finan has accepted either UCSD's or Berkeley's offers (Comparative Politics slot)?
The tone of the post made at 3:08 PM, January 05, 2006 seems to assume that the people posting the information about hirees have complete information, but are holding out. This may not always be the case. I posted the information about the Trinity job because I know that it was filled. I interviewed for that job and was told that someone else had accepted their offer, but I had no clue as to who else was even being interviewed let alone who they hired.
Yoav Gortzak (Ohio State) has accepted the offer from ASU for the IR position.
Did Moonhawk Kim get the Delaware job?
I think Brock Tessman got the Georgia IR job.
Amy Oakes turned down Middlebury and took a job at William and Mary.
I thought the W&M position was taken by an internal candidate...
Regarding W&M, Holger Schmidt (Columbia, doing a visiting stint at W&M) turned them down to take the GW position.
Devashree Gupta (Cornell) accepted the Carleton job.
Word has it Sebastian Rosato accepted a position at Notre Dame.
Did Singer accept the MIT or Penn IR slots?
I have heard from two different sources that Kentucky is going back into its pool.
I heard second or third hand that someone turned down a senior hire at Kentucky. Is this true? Which search? Reason?
From a good friend in the department. Kentucky rejected a counter offer made by someone for one of the senior spots. The counter offer was way out of line for this person's rank.
Any news on some of the New England schools (Northeastern, UMASS, URI, etc)?
URI have invited candidates for interviews during late Jan and early Feb
Northeastern has invited candidates for interviews during late January...
Dan Reiter of Emory University will visit the Department and present his
job talk "War as a Solution to the Problem of Credible Commitments" at 1:30
PM on Friday, January 20, in Pick Lounge.

In the last post: "the department" is not very helpful.
Any dirt on WashU in St. Louis?
Berkeley did their interviews a long time ago...so does anybody know what happened with that job? Did they even make an offer?
David Patel accepted the comparative politics job at Cornell University
If Berkeley is considering a tenured offer, it takes time for such an appointment to be processed (outside letters, tenure vote, university tenure committees, etc.)
A friend from Pittsburgh told me that Burcu Savun (Rice University) accepted Pitt's IR position.
so, those of us in american and comparative were jealous so we now have our own blog at...
http://americanandcomparativejobs.blogspot.com/
please do not expect the same quality as the ir rumor mill. it will not be so sophisticated.
"please do not expect the same quality as the ir rumor mill. it will not be so sophisticated."

Colorado's IR search generated an offer to Moonhawk Kim.

Does anyone know if Auburn has invited candidates in? I know that they had a long short list in early December.
Any word on the search at UMass?
UMass has invited candidates for interviews.
Auburn has invited candidates for interviews.
I might be wrong about St. John's then if they're still asking for additional materials from people. They invited candidates for interviews in October and sent letters to at least this one saying that they made an offer to another candidate, who accepted it.

The College of William and Mary has made a hire. No other details in the letter they sent.

Does anyone know who's interviewing at James Madison (at Michigan State)? I think I remember someone saying they've already invited up candidates.

VMI has completed their search. No word on who they selected, sorry.
Vanderbilt hired Michaela Mattes of Rice University. See http://sitemason.vanderbilt.edu/psci/faculty#mattes
Pitt and South Carolina have hired in their CP searches. Don't know anything at all about McGill.
When referring to EU/CP and Pitt, they did not make an offer. So, they will keep searching for another year (probably next year).

CSU made an offer to someone from Penn State. No news on whether it was accepted yet.
Baldwin-Wallace hired someone (per rejection letter).
My rejection letter from Baldwin-Wallace hinted that they were bringing in people to interview-- and I was not one of them.
Ha ha-- you can tell that I didn't read past that first line of the B-W letter! Oh, well.
I was just looking for that letter to make sure I gave people the right info-- and I had already thrown it out.
University of Kentucky (poli sci) is going back into their pool after doing interviews in Oct/Nov. They are contacting candidates to see if they are still available.
