I for one would like to see job listings here. They definitely say some things about trends in the profession(s), even if you're not job hunting.

That's definitely given me some direction for personal goal-setting, and on a couple of occasions has motivated me to finally take that "intro to ____" class so that I can add "familiarity with ____" to my qualifications...
Some of me would like to see the job listings come back to our mailing list. To some degree, the job listings were overwhelming, but I also found them to be very interesting. What do others think? --Eric Morgan <emorgan_at_nd.edu>
