This is brutal, folks: 2 postdocs and a R&D head position in Laramie, Wyoming do not a recovery make. 


Faculty positions, though: Still going strong. 

Small college of the week: The University of New England (Biddeford, ME, student population: 3,167 - SA-LUTE!) is looking for a tenure-track faculty position in inorganic chemistry. I love these descriptions: "a dynamic, enthusiastic individual". So if you're not static and apathetic, this position might be for you. Good luck!
