Jobs Jobs Jobs

Cleveland Clinic is hiring several people - just announced: kodishe@ccf.edu. Lehigh Valley Medical Center is hiring a Fellow in clinical ethics. Nebraska is hiring a temporary faculty member, Ruth Purtillo has left there for Mass General. U of Washington has hired 2 people. Penn is hiring for three possible positions, jobs to be posted within days. Per jobseeker (using the number of members of the APA and ASBH, and the number of jobs posted at ASBH and in Jobs for Philosophers), bioethics has more than seven times more open positions right now than are open in philosophy (by my own napkin calculation anyway). Medicine may not have saved philosophy but it certainly has offered it a job.
