Dear Gs on the market,
FYI below is part of an email I received from Lee Rainie <LRainie(a)PewResearch.org<mailto:LRainie@PewResearch.org>>, who wrote co-authored Networked: The New Social Operating System (MIT Press) with Barry Wellman.
"And finally, ...I pass along word of two job openings here at Pew Research that I think some of the folks in your network might be interested to ponder. One is for a new research team we've created to step up our research related to race and ethnicity. We need a scholar to help on the survey side of that. The other is to help lead on "Data Labs" team, which is our "big data" "organic data" unit. You can see details here (and share them if you think you know people who'd be interested): https://jobs-prc.icims.com/jobs/search?ss=1 ."

Hi Jessica,
I hope this email finds you well! I'm cc'ing my colleague Carolyn Ly at Augustana University. They're looking for someone who might want to do an online course (partially synchronous) on Delinquency and Crime for their Sociology Department. It’s for spring semester to cover a sabbatical. They can email Carolyn Ly (carolyn.ly(a)augie.edu<mailto:carolyn.ly@augie.edu>) if they have questions about pay, etc., or would like to apply. The course time could be flexible if they find someone by Monday. They can use their own course content--they're not required to use any specific syllabus--but Augustana would want to see a syllabus before the semester starts.
Do any alumn or grad students who might be interested come to mind?

The College of Arts and Sciences at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is recruiting up to six outstanding tenure track faculty to deepen and expand research and teaching related to racial equity, in parallel with two searches that address historical aspects of American slavery. We seek highly talented faculty whose research and teaching will make transformative contributions to the major themes of 1) Health, Wellness, and Equity in Communities of Color and 2) Black and Indigenous Families and Communities, with a preferred emphasis on U.S. populations. Searches in the departments of Biology, Communication, Economics, Exercise and Sport Science, Psychology & Neuroscience, and Sociology will contribute to this initiative. Across these searches, we aspire to recruit faculty who are doing innovative, intersectional, and high impact work that will diversify and enhance our research, teaching, and public outreach missions.
The Department of Sociology invites applications for a tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor, to start as early as July 1, 2021, pending approval.

Faculty Positions in Organizational Behavior
Stanford seeks to hire as many as 10 strong researchers and scholars — campus-wide — who study the impact of race in American society, including the nature and persistence of racial inequality and its consequences.
We seek to support, deepen, and enhance the important research and teaching in these areas long underway on our campus.
Stanford Graduate School of Business invites applications for faculty positions under the Impact of Race in America topic in our seven academic areas:
· Accounting
· Economics
· Finance
· Marketing
· Operations, Information & Technology
· Organizational Behavior
· Political Economy
Rank is open, although there is the expectation that a majority of the appointments will be made at the assistant professor level. Although all areas of research will be considered, we are particularly interested in candidates with outstanding records of achievement in developing or using innovative approaches in the broad areas of their discipline. The successful candidates should possess a strong research background within their discipline and the ability to teach effectively in both the MBA and PhD programs in the school. The successful candidates should have or must expect to have their PhD degree by the start date of their faculty appointment at Stanford University.
Review of Applications
Begins on November 15, 2020 and will continue until all of the positions are filled.
How to Apply
Candidates are invited to apply online with the following materials:
· A statement describing the candidate’s academic background and teaching experience
· A curriculum vitae
· A research statement of no more than three pages
· The names of three recommenders

FYI
Sara Doskow, Senior Editor for Political Science & Sociology at Cambridge University Press, New York, will join us over Zoom on Monday, October 19 for our annual discussion on academic publishing.
We'd be delighted if any of your later stage graduate students (those in their dissertation completion year would probably be the ideal audience) would like to sign up and attend the presentation. Sara will also be available to meet one-on-one with political scientists and sociologists regarding their potential book manuscript plans.
PRESENTATION:
We will be meeting over Zoom on Monday, October 19, 2020 at 10 AM. Sara will share her expertise in academic publishing and field questions until about 11 AM.
APPOINTMENTS:
Sara will be pleased to meet political scientists and sociologists for one-on-one appointments of 15 minutes duration during rest of the day beginning after 11:15 AM until about 4:15 PM. Anyone meeting with her should prepare a one-page, typed synopsis of their work with contact information included, so Sara may easily stay in touch in the future.
RSVP:
Anyone who would like to attend should RSVP to me.
My email is: khoover(a)wcfia.harvard.edu<mailto:khoover@wcfia.harvard.edu>.
The email should include whether or not you will attend the 10 AM presentation and if requesting a one-on-one meeting, a preferred time, your discipline, and department or program.
Attached are four documents from Sara in preparation for the virtual visit. We look forward to seeing your affiliates there.
Best regards,
Kathleen

I want to bring to your attention an opening at the W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research for a senior researcher. I was hoping you either had some names to suggest, or that you might bring this position to the attention of potential candidates for this position.
Details on the position are available in an announcement on the Upjohn Institute’s website, at https://www.upjohn.org/sites/default/files/inline-files/Senior_Researcher_P…<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.upjohn.org_sites_d…> but let me emphasize a couple of features of the position:
* We are looking outside of economics, because we are seeking to diversify the disciplinary and methodological base of our research team. We are especially interested in researchers with substantial experience using qualitative, mixed, and/or survey research methods to study employment and labor policy issues. Disciplinary fields might include sociology, social work, urban planning, geography, industrial and labor relations, political science, or public policy
* We are open to hiring researchers on a part-time basis, including those who wish to combine the Institute’s research position with an academic appointment
The Upjohn Institute is an endowed research institution. Because the endowment supports most of our research operations, we have considerable freedom to set our own research agenda on employment and labor policy issues.
If you know of anyone who might be interested in this senior research position, please let us know and encourage them to contact us for more information.
Thank you kindly for your assistance.
Sincerely,
Marta
