My department is hiring in African history and the United States since 1865! Both positions are tenure-track, and both hires will be made at the assistant level. I'm not on either search committee (sabbatical, babyyyyy), but I'm more than happy to answer any questions you might have. 🗃️

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square. 45² = 45 x 45 = 2025 Also, 9² x 5² = 2025 40² + 20² + 5² = 2025 My favourite? 1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025 #Mathematics #teaching #education
Merry Christmas to all Astronomers all around the world
