The complications of moving and settling the family in a new place mean that there isn't going to be a new PGR this fall, and it may not appear until fall 2009. I will post in September a very detailed update on faculty changes since the fall 2006 surveys, which should help prospective students use the 2006 PGR in planning for fall 2009 admissions. I should also note that the National Research Council report on graduate programs, including in philosophy, is due out in January, though as usual with the NRC, it is already a bit out of date, though not more so than the 2006 PGR. Hopefully the NRC will provide some good information, though I'm not optimistic given some of the very odd methodological decisions they made (I fear the NRC was "captured" by certain interest groups...whose interests weren't the well-being of students!). I'll certainly comment on that in detail when it appears.
Meanwhile, look for the detailed update on faculty moves since 2006 in about a month. My apologies for the delay in getting out a new PGR.
