Winter blahs: One sales position and one NMR position (with Bruker!) Well, it is winter. Sigh. 

Academic-wise: There's still stuff out there, but it's mostly temporary faculty and postdocs. US tenure-track positions have definitely slowed. 

Small college of the week: Franklin and Marshall College (Lancaster, PA, student population: 2,118 - SA-LUTE!) is looking for two one-year visiting professors in chemistry, one for organic chemistry and the other, general and analytical chemistry. If you're interested in teaching at the alma mater of Spliff Star and Roy Scheider, this job might be for you!
