My department at Fordham, Communication and Media Studies, is hiring. Note that we are a great place for junior faculty: we have hired some incredible people over the last few years, we are launching a new MA program next year and a new undergraduate curriculum is in the works. And you'd get to work with me :) I'm not on the hiring committee for either job but would be happy to answer questions about Fordham.
