Peter Ludlow (philosophy of language), who just last year moved from Michigan to the University of Toronto, has now accepted a senior offer from Northwestern University. Northwestern, which ranked 53rd in the fall 2006 PGR surveys, has, since that time, lost Tad Brennan to Cornell University and Habermas is no longer a regular visiting professor, but has also added, in addition to Ludlow, several tenured faculty, including Sanford Goldberg from Kentucky, Jennifer Lackey from Northern Illinois, and Charles Mills from Illinois/Chicago, as well as making junior appointments. I would expect Northwestern to be squarely back in the top 50, probably the top 40, in the next round of PGR surveys.
(Query: does this mean Urzinus Sklar is moving too?)
