The best thing to do when you see jobs on the wiki board is to go to one of the soc. jobs websites like chronicle careers, higheredjobs.com, the ASA job bank, etc. Both of the ones you're curious about can be seen in the ASA job bank.
yes, you can find all these jobs on the job bank or the ASA employment service (except the Tulane one and the Wisconsin-Madison one, for some reason). But, if you're asking because you don't want to fork over the cash to get access to those listings, just say so. I'll cut and paste them.
I just downloaded the ASA Job Bank and I found the U of Kentucky announcement (sorry about that) but not the Miami of Ohio one (just U of Miami in Florida). Maybe I am missing something? Thank you for your help.
It was on the employment service... that costs extra$$

I was wondering how many schools are interviewing at through the official process at ASA this year? I did the employment service thing last year (didn't lead to much, I'm in a post-doc now), and have not forked out the money either to attend ASA or take part in the service. Just curious if I'm missing out on anything... ;)
Looking at this year's description of the service, and an archived description of last years, it looks like the number of employers has gone from 70 in 2005 to 80 in 2006. Given that slope, I'm guessing maybe 90 or so employers this year.
This doesn't mean that there are more jobs, necessarily; just that it looks like more schools are using the service.

There are a bunch of schools with multiple job postings (like Mich State). I looked at the employer id #s. There were 14 unused ID #s between 1 and 88. Since that - the Williams institute ad went up, so now there's 13.
Clearly, I'm spending too much time obsessing over job sites. :)
I was talking to the Chair of the search committee for University of Kentucky at a conference this weekend. They are searching for a sociologists with interest in children (not the parents- just the kids). If you have a specialization in anything related to children and sociology, check out U of Kentucky.
Does anyone have any more info on the "open search" at Wisconsion-Madison (as posted on the Wiki)? I haven't seen this listed anywhere (ASA, Chronicle, etc.). On the Wisconsin-Madison website, they list three open positions in sociology: 1) political economy; 2) open; and 3) economic sociology. However, the job listings for #2 and #3 are dated from last year. I'm not sure if this is an error, or if this means that these job announcements are old. Anyone know anything more about this?

UMass Amherst is interesting because I know someone who got a job there, but it was actually a post-doc. So, they say they are hiring four assistant profs, but it looks like they are not tenure track.
I believe they are called "Visiting Assistant Professors," or VAPs. They are folks with Ph.D.s with temp jobs that are unlikely to become permanent positions. Some people describe VAPs as simply glorified adjuncts.
University of Massachusetts-Amherst. The Department of Sociology invites applications for up to four tenure-track positions beginning Fall 2007. Two positions will be at the assistant professor level. One or more positions may be appointed at the Associate or early Full Professor levels. Substantive specializations are open.

The department has a strong Ph.D. program in Sociology and candidates should be interested in making significant contributions to that program. Applications received after October 15 cannot be assured full consideration. Applicants should have firm expectations of a completed PhD by September 2007 and be eager to join an intellectually lively, growing department.

Please send a resume, letter of application, publications or samples of written work, and three letters of reference to Robert Zussman Recruitment Committee Chair, Department of Sociology, Thompson Hall, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003-5725.
I think the UMass ad clearly states that the positions are tenure-track positions. I guess I'm not sure what you mean by non-tenure-track "assistant professor" if you don't mean VAP.
Someone questioned whether the jobs were really TT jobs. According to their ad, they are. If they were for post-docs or VAPs, they would be advertised as such.
Good luck to anyone who applies. UMass-Amherst sounds like a nice place to work.
Did anyone who talked to Loyola Chicago at ASA ask what materials they would like to see or where said materials should be sent? It seems that these items did not make their position notice.
i have heard that departments rarely if ever hire an adjunct for a TT assit. position, while VAPs are considered candidates for them. so i have been advised that it is better to wait a year and do the job market again than to take an adjunct and try for TT the following year.
the history dept at my school just hired an adjunct as tenure track. one of the people who interviewed for my position in soc was an adjunct here as well. it's not the most likely scenario, but it does happen.
According to someone I talked to, UMass Amherst is indeed hiring a lot of tenure-track faculty. They're being given money to expand, and the job posting is what it says it is.
Someone already posed this question in another thread, but I thought I would re-post it here.
What's going on with the ASA Job Bank? There haven't been new jobs since before the ASA meeting. Will there suddenly be a flood of ads? Is this customary?

About the Barnard position: I spoke with someone in their department, and it sounds like they have a heavy teaching load but when you come up for tenure, it is with the entire faculty (including Columbia) and they evaluate you based on whether you have met both teaching AND RESEARCH standards that would pass muster at Columbia. For what it's worth...
the wiki is a little finicky. Sometimes I think I've entered the password in correctly, but find that it hasn't registered. Check the wiki history if you suspect people are deleting things. Most likely, your changes never registered.

Mississippi State. Listing for a tenure track position went up this morning on the Chronicle of Higher Ed site. Surfing over to the school's HR page this seems to be for a specialization in demography, essentially the same as a position advertised last summer. Judging by the wiki, it looks like they already interviewed candidates for such a position but have not made a hire. Anyone have more info?
Mississippi State did make a hire earlier in the year. I am not sure if this is a new position and they got an extra line or if the new hire pulled out. Probably the former.
There's a new job posted in the ASA Job Bank for Akita International University in Japan. If you're tempted, you might want to check out a discussion on the Chronicle forum before putting too much effort into an application: http://chronicle.com/forums/index.php/topic,28632.0.html
Whatever age you may be, every one seems to be looking for a Job. There are fresh graduates from college, who want to find jobs, then there are the unemployed who are always on the lookout of earning a living and then there are the people who are employed but want to get a better job. ====================================================== randy

Does anyone have information about the jobs at University of Kentucky
and/or Miami of Ohio that were listed on the sociology wiki?
The best thing to do when you see jobs on the wiki board is to go to one of the soc. jobs websites like chronicle careers, higheredjobs.com, the ASA job bank, etc. Both of the ones you're curious about can be seen in the ASA job bank.
yes, you can find all these jobs on the job bank or the ASA employment service (except the Tulane one and the Wisconsin-Madison one, for some reason). But, if you're asking because you don't want to fork over the cash to get access to those listings, just say so. I'll cut and paste them.
I just downloaded the ASA Job Bank and I found the U of Kentucky announcement (sorry about that) but not the Miami of Ohio one (just U of Miami in Florida). Maybe I am missing something? Thank you for your help.
It was on the employment service... that costs extra$$

I was wondering how many schools are interviewing at through the official process at ASA this year? I did the employment service thing last year (didn't lead to much, I'm in a post-doc now), and have not forked out the money either to attend ASA or take part in the service. Just curious if I'm missing out on anything... ;)
Looking at this year's description of the service, and an archived description of last years, it looks like the number of employers has gone from 70 in 2005 to 80 in 2006. Given that slope, I'm guessing maybe 90 or so employers this year.
This doesn't mean that there are more jobs, necessarily; just that it looks like more schools are using the service.
Anyone have info on the Berea job? I've not seen anything posted on the job sites or their website.

"We are sorry, but the Employment Service is totally full and ASA can not accept any new Employer registrations as of July 30, 2007."
Looks like that's it for employers at the service unless some are registered but have not posted their ads yet.
by my count, there are at least 14 schools that are registered for the employment service that haven't posted their ads yet.
14 schools?
I saw 88 registered employers and 86 postings. How did you calculate 14?
-just curious.
There are a bunch of schools with multiple job postings (like Mich State). I looked at the employer id #s. There were 14 unused ID #s between 1 and 88. Since that - the Williams institute ad went up, so now there's 13.
Clearly, I'm spending too much time obsessing over job sites. :)
Gotcha. Okay, 13 more posts on the employment service site and then I can stop checking every 15 minutes...
:)
ps. I was hoping you were wrong... because I need to get back to work!
Yeah, then I'll only be compulsively checking the chronicle, the regular job bank, highered jobs.com, and this.
Don't forget insidehighered.com They only update new jobs every two weeks. But that doesn't keep me from checking every half hour... :)
I was talking to the Chair of the search committee for University of Kentucky at a conference this weekend.

Does anyone have any more info on the "open search" at Wisconsion-Madison (as posted on the Wiki)? I haven't seen this listed anywhere (ASA, Chronicle, etc.). On the Wisconsin-Madison website, they list three open positions in sociology: 1) political economy; 2) open; and 3) economic sociology. However, the job listings for #2 and #3 are dated from last year. I'm not sure if this is an error, or if this means that these job announcements are old. Anyone know anything more about this?

Is the mention of two SUNY SB jobs on the Wiki a mistake? I found the University's job site and it lists no jobs for this year in soc. There were two available last year, though.
anyone know about the UMass-Amherst positions ("up to 4") posted on the wiki? seems odd given they hired 6(!) last year according to their web page.
I got the UMass posting from a listserv (maybe SWS?) and it did say up to 4. Can't find it now...

UMass Amherst is interesting because I know someone who got a job there, but it was actually a post-doc. So, they say they are hiring four assistant profs, but it looks like they are not tenure track.
Is it possible to be a non-tenure track *assistant* professor?
Anonymous 8:12:
I believe they are called "Visiting Assistant Professors," or VAPs. They are folks with Ph.D.s with temp jobs that are unlikely to become permanent positions. Some people describe VAPs as simply glorified adjuncts.
Yes, but VAPs are usually advertised as VAPs.

University of Massachusetts-Amherst. The Department of Sociology invites

specializations are open. We anticipate hiring one or more candidates who can
make contributions to the core curriculum in theory. The department has a
strong Ph.D. program in Sociology and candidates should be interested in making
significant contributions to that program. Applications received after October
15 cannot be assured full consideration. Applicants should have firm
expectations of a completed PhD by September 2007 and be eager to join an
intellectually lively, growing department. The department and the university

I think the UMass ad clearly states that the positions are tenure-track positions. I guess I'm not sure what you mean by non-tenure-track "assistant professor" if you don't mean VAP.
I think we are confusing ourselves.
Someone questioned whether the jobs were really TT jobs. According to their ad, they are. If they were for post-docs or VAPs, they would be advertised as such.
Good luck to anyone who applies. UMass-Amherst sounds like a nice place to work.
Did anyone who talked to Loyola Chicago at ASA ask what materials they would like to see or where said materials should be sent? It seems that these items did not make their position notice.
re: VAP vs. adjunct
i have heard that departments rarely if ever hire an adjunct for a TT assit. position, while VAPs are considered candidates for them. so i have been advised that it is better to wait a year and do the job market again than to take an adjunct and try for TT the following year.
re: tt and adjunct
the history dept at my school just hired an adjunct as tenure track. one of the people who interviewed for my position in soc was an adjunct here as well. it's not the most likely scenario, but it does happen.
According to someone I talked to, UMass Amherst is indeed hiring a lot of tenure-track faculty. They're being given money to expand, and the job posting is what it says it is.
Someone already posed this question in another thread, but I thought I would re-post it here.
What's going on with the ASA Job Bank? There haven't been new jobs since before the ASA meeting. Will there suddenly be a flood of ads? Is this customary?
Check it now... a bunch of new postings

About the Barnard position: I spoke with someone in their department, and it sounds like they have a heavy teaching load but when you come up for tenure, it is with the entire faculty (including Columbia) and they evaluate you based on whether you have met both teaching AND RESEARCH standards that would pass muster at Columbia. For what it's worth...
The wiki says the Bowling Green demog. search is canceled. Not that I don't trust the wiki... but how can we verify this?
re: Bowling Green
The job posting has been removed from the ASA job bank and the school's website. It appears that the search has been canceled.
-cpl
Are people deleting job posting from the wiki list? Just curious as I've posted some to keep it updated, and they've gone missing.
the wiki is a little finicky. Sometimes I think I've entered the password in correctly, but find that it hasn't registered. Check the wiki history if you suspect people are deleting things. Most likely, your changes never registered.
Thanks. I already checked...they did register. :-)
I'm the one who posted about the canceled Bowling Green post. I sent in my app a couple of weeks ago and got an email from Frank Goza stating that the search had been canceled due to a hiring freeze enacted in August.
Does anyone know if the CUNY-Queens College junior demography position is going to be advertised soon? They had interviews at ASA for that position and another, but I haven't seen the demography position advertised yet.
The Junior Demography Position is now formally authorized, and is pending affirmative action approval. If all goes well it will be posted later this week or beginning of next week.
Is the USC job posted above looking for a 'Latin Americanist' as it seemed to be posted heavily on Latin American Studies e-mail lists.
Columbia University is hiring. The position is for someone who does stats. The deadline will be October 15.
I can't find neither the Columbia posting nor the USC original posting. Where have they been advertised?
Columbia was just added to ASA job bank.
USC: We seek applicants with strong research and teaching records or promise of scholarly excellence in the field of international migration and/or immigrant communities.

Mississippi State. Listing for a tenure track position went up this morning on the Chronicle of Higher Ed site. Surfing over to the school's HR page this seems to be for a specialization in demography, essentially the same as a position advertised last summer. Judging by the wiki, it looks like they already interviewed candidates for such a position but have not made a hire. Anyone have more info?
Mississippi State did make a hire earlier in the year. I am not sure if this is a new position and they got an extra line or if the new hire pulled out. Probably the former.
There's a new job posted in the ASA Job Bank for Akita International University in Japan. If you're tempted, you might want to check out a discussion on the Chronicle forum before putting too much effort into an application: http://chronicle.com/forums/index.php/topic,28632.0.html
Any word on any of the visiting positions?
Whatever age you may be, every one seems to be looking for a Job. There are fresh graduates from college, who want to find jobs, then there are the unemployed who are always on the lookout of earning a living and then there are the people who are employed but want to get a better job.
