Recently I have only been posting job opportunities, which is only to widen the scope of scholars who may potentially stumble upon my blog and take interest in these updates. It is also beneficial for me, even though I am relatively far away from the academic job-hunt, it definitely is insightful to see the trends leading up to my jump into the market. Nevertheless, I hope this is helpful to some.
