Since I apparently started a controversy by forwarding a "job position
announcement" to the list last week, I feel it only fair to forward you this
explanation from the original poster on the Women's Studies List.  As you
can see, she and some others may have wanted female applicants which was why
it was posted to the Women's Studies list in the first place.  I forwarded
it to our list as a job announcement and a vehicle for discussion...which we
had.  So I hope this explanation clears up the "official announcement" which
DID NOT specify a female.  Thanks.
