The Academic Job Market: An Ecological Introduction By Leonard Cassuto
The Academic Job Market: An Ecological Introduction By Leonard Cassuto
The academic job market is a monolith that looms over the lives of most graduate students, but part of the reason it's so imposing is because it seems so inscrutable and impenetrable. Higher education scholar and journalist Leonard Cassuto will explain the role of the market in academic culture of our time, and what it takes for graduate students to search for jobs with informed confidence.
Leonard Cassuto, professor of English at Fordham University, writes a monthly column for the Chronicle of Higher Education called "The Graduate Adviser." He is an award-winning author and editor of numerous books and is currently writing a book about the state of American graduate education.
