The Chronicle: Career Network: 12/20/2002: "A bit of good news, Ms. Feal says, is that the number of doctorates awarded in English fields fell to 977, down 8.7 percent from 1,070 in 2000-1. However, new doctoral recipients still greatly outnumber new entry-level job openings in English, she says.In addition, there's a backlog of graduates from previous years still looking for tenure-track positions, Ms. Feal says. Findings from a recent MLA survey of Ph.D. placements show that only 42 percent of the people who earned English Ph.D.'s in 2000-1 obtained tenure-track jobs that year."
