MEMORANDUM 02-42
October 4, 2002
| To: | Deans of Member and Fee-Paid Schools |
| From: | Veryl V. Miles, Deputy Director |
| Subject: | Third Distribution of 2002-2003 Faculty Appointments Register |
Enclosed is the paper copy version of the third distribution of the fall 2002-2003 Faculty Appointments Register (FAR) containing 109 faculty appointment registrants. The FAR is also available as an online database. Candidates have input their qualifications and experiences directly into a database via the internet. Beginning October 4, 2002, recruiters can access the third distribution by visiting www.aals.org/recruit/ and clicking on the “candidate search” link. Recruiters can then use search criteria to find candidates to invite to interview. A number of candidates also have submitted supplemental resumes, which can be viewed online in the Recruiters’ database.
Changes in address or telephone information from candidates who appeared in previous distributions are noted on a following page. Please note these changes have already been made to the online database. One candidate who was listed in the first distribution has submitted a new form with updated information. Her previous form is no longer accessible in the database. This candidate is identified on a page prior to the list of candidates by gender and ethnicity.
The names of candidates originally omitted from the first and second distributions are included on a page attached to this memo. These candidates’ forms were sent to you under separate cover in Deans Memos 02-37 and 02-41. Please make sure your faculty recruitment teams have received these memos and attachments.
One candidate notified AALS of a material error in his form that AALS is reporting to you. His form has been corrected in the database. This candidate is identified in a page following this memo.
Please note that the FAR database will be accessible to recruiters only by using the assigned usernames and passwords attached to Deans Memo 02-28 from Associate Director Jane La Barbera dated August 9, 2002. If that memo has not yet been received, please contact AALS as soon as possible.
The Candidate information must be handled in a manner to protect the confidentiality of candidates. Schools may not share FAR candidate information outside the law school appointments process. It is also very important that schools not contact a present employer until authorized by the candidate when the candidate has checked off on the form "Do Not Contact Unless Authorized." Candidates have a legitimate interest in not risking unauthorized contact with their employer. Please take steps to insure that those involved in your school’s hiring process agree to protect the candidate’s confidentiality.
This is the final distribution of Faculty Appointments Register forms prior to the Faculty Recruitment Conference. In addition to all forms in the first three distributions, any candidate forms received after the last candidate deadline will be made available to recruiting teams at the Faculty Recruitment Conference. This year’s Conference will be held at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, D.C., October 24-26, 2002.
