There are a lot of variables that factor in to deciding what university and city are a good fit for a graduate’s first faculty position: size of the city and university, proximity to family, the institution’s financial resources, recreational opportunities, departmental research focus. Congratulations to our PhD students who have secured faculty positions for next fall and found the place that was the right fit for them.
