A question from an anonymous post doc...

"When your department has a tenure track opening do you send a member of the search committee to the ACS AEI poster session? What about when you are looking for visiting or adjunct faculty?"

I am sure the community has lots of different perspectives on this one.

The Chemistry Department of The Cooper Union invites applications for a tenured/tenure-track faculty position. Candidates with strong backgrounds in analytical chemistry and instrumental analysis are particularly encouraged to apply.

You hopefully received an e-mail with a link to the DIC ballot. Please don't forget to take the time to vote for officers. The DIC has been a very generous supporter of IONiC and VIPEr historically and let's make sure that the community continues to have a voice in DIC governance.

We are searching at Reed College for a 3-semester visitor in Inorganic Chemistry to begin in January 2014 and continue through the 2014-2015 academic year.  Please spread the word!  Here is the official search ad:

I just wanted to spread the word about another position opening.  Tell your analytical, environmental, or geochemistry friends.

We are searching at Hamilton College for a tenure-track physical chemist at the Assistant Professor level to start July 2014. Many inorganic chemists double as physical chemists and vice versa so I thought our position might be of interest here.

Dear Colleague,

 I am writing you to call your attention to a planned symposia entitled "Developing Inorganic Curriculum at the Undergraduate Level" at  upcoming the 247th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society in Dallas, TX March 16-20 2014 . 

A former supervisor of mine, Polly Arnold (Edinburgh), is launching a short film and book about women in science. Details can be found at: http://chemicalimbalance.co.uk/

I thought it would be useful to have a thread gethering resources that might be of interest to students and faculty looking to begin conversations about diversity and underrepresentation of various groups within their departments. 

I will need an adjunct professor to teach a Foundations of Inorganic Chemistry lab in the Spring 2014 semester, Mondays 1-5 pm. If you live nearby, and are interested, please let me know. Hofstra Universty, Hempstead, NY
