Speaking of metadata, geographical location should be a requirement for position announcements in my opinion. I'm pretty sure I know where Lehigh U. is but even by the time I'd copied, pasted, and clicked the URL included I still didn't know for sure since location isn't included in the full announcement nor anywhere on the page.
