An Update on Some "Moves to Watch For" from the 2009 PGR

I thought it might be useful to update in one place the status of the 'moves to watch for' noted in the last PGR; in quick summary form:

1.  David Chalmers (ANU) turned down Princeton and Rutgers, and accepted a half-time post at NYU.  Due to the different calendar years, he will remain more-or-less full-time in Canberra as well.

2.  Daniel Jacobson (Bowling Green) turned down UC San Diego.

3.  Gabriel Richardson Lear and Jonathan Lear (both Chicago) turned down Yale.

4.  John MacFarlane (Berkeley) turned down Harvard and NYU.

5.  Michael Otsuka (UCL) turned down Pittsburgh.

6.  Kieran Setiya (Pittsburgh) turned down Texas.

7.  Allen Wood and Rega Wood (Indiana) will return to Stanford, though Rega will only teach the next two years there.

Jeremy Waldron (NYU) is still negotiating with Oxford on the offer of the Chichele Professorship in Social & Political Theory, and Calvin Normore, currently splitting between UCLA and McGill, has not, to the best of my knowledge, made a final decision about whether that arrangement will continue or whether he will move full-time to one or the other.
