   Georgia State (senior): rumor of possible acceptance soon
   Northwestern (senior): failed?
   Princeton: failed?
   Rhode Island: job accepted by Xu, LSU ABD
   Rutgers: failed?
   South Carolina (senior): failed?

    Stern --> Princeton? From another thread a while back, the three interviewees did not include Stern, or anyone that works on China.

    ^ You can't be serious. You believed that ridiculous list?

    I keep being surprised by just how gullible you people can be.

    "so that those of us waiting to jump in next year can have a better sense"

    What sense are you trying to get for next year?

    The only sense you need acclimate yourselves to is the smell of incense, when all you dummies take those third world cesspool jobs that you can no longer ignore.

    Do you think Chinese scholars post the same racist crap about Americanists that you guys do? I kinda hope so.

    To all the as*hat China haters: You'll be sorry when China buys your university and cans your Sinophobic arse. Better stop worrying and learn to love Mandrin. Also, learn to use chopsticks, you hillbillies.

    You know what Napolean said about the Chinese, right? "A country forever on the verge of greatness." We'll see if they can throw off the curse that has plagued them for 5000 years this time around. Till then, get my opium pipe ya coolie!

    Stern also had an offer from Rutgers. I assumed she's said no in the face of Berkeley's offer.

    OK, the updated list:

    Duke (senior): Malesky, UCSD (legacy from last year's search, to start summer 2012)
    Georgia State (senior): Wedeman
    Northwestern (senior): failed?
    Penn State: Zhu, Columbia ABD
    Pittsburgh: Paler, Columbia ABD
    Princeton: failed?
    Rhode Island: job accepted by Xu, LSU ABD
    Rutgers: Stern
    South Carolina (senior): failed?
    UCSD (senior): Shih, Northwestern (legacy from last year's search, to start summer 2012)

    The information provides a better sense of the market for the next year. We will know better what positions are still available and what other positions will be vacated, etc. and can better prepare ourselves accordingly. Thanks for contributing, folks!!

    ^^ Why did you include Princeton in the China list but not UCLA? Princeton didn't say they wanted a China specialist, and UCLA didn't say they didn't want a China specialist.
