MEMORANDUM 98-36

August 28, 1998

 

To: Deans of Member and Fee-Paid Schools
From: Barbara J. Cox
Subject: First Distribution of 1998-99 Faculty Appointments Register

 

Enclosed is the first distribution of the fall 1998 Faculty Appointments Register, containing 381 faculty appointment registrants.

Please urge those who handle the FAR to treat the candidate information with confidentiality. Schools may not share FAR candidate information outside the law school appointments process. It is also important that schools not contact references 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.

The next distribution of the biographical sketches received in our office by August 28 will be mailed to you on or before September 11. Forms received between August 31 and September 11 will be mailed on or before September 25. There will be a fourth distribution on or before October 9 for forms received by September 25, 1998.

Unless a registrant requests otherwise, all biographical sketches received after September 25 will be made available to recruiting teams, together with all other sketches previously received, at the Faculty Recruitment Conference. This year's Conference will be held at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington, D.C., October 29-31, 1998.
