Another slow week for the Chemjobber C&EN index as there are 4 pages of ads, 3 of which have space-filling pseudo-ads from C&EN itself. Industrial, governmental and academic recruitment all seem to be at a lower level.
Birdfish Catdog to good home: An ad from Boston University for 3 teaching postdocs was placed under the headline "Teaching/Research Postdoctoral Faculty Fellows". Really? Imagine fitting that title on a business card. Why not go for broke and fit a "staff" or a "student" in there, too? What in the sam hell is a "Postdoctoral Faculty Fellow"?
Signs that things are tough all over: In the "Positions Open", there is a bizarrely misplaced ad for beamtime for protein crystallography at Argonne National Laboratory. Yes, we know that you have open instrument time and you could make some money at it. But this is a really odd place to put this ad -- it's almost (almost!) the scientific version of spam. Glad to know taxpayer dollars are going to this. Maybe I'll put up a Google ad that we have an empty building that would be great for raves!
Small school of the week: There's actually a nice number to choose from, but our winner is Saint Anselm College in Manchester, NH (student population 2000, SA-LUTE!), which is looking for a tenure-track organic professor. (ACS registration required.) Manchvegas (as Chemjobber friend BP called it) sounds like a fun town and it's hard to think of a nicer place to be a college professor than New Hampshire (except maybe Oregon.)
