MOVING TO FRONT (originally posted August 3)
Here's where tenure-track (junior) faculty in 2015-16 (with the tenure home in philosophy) at the top 25 U.S. programs (list below the fold) earned their PhD or DPhil; the first number is the total number of graduates in tenure-track positions at the top 25 U.S. programs; that is followed by the Department's PGR rank in 2014 and in 2006-08, the report many of those now in tenure-track jobs might have been using when deciding where to get their PhD.

I've only listed overall rankings, but in the cases of departments outside the top ranks, the graduates who landed in top 25 programs worked in specialty areas where the program was even more highly ranked.
Each of the following programs has one PhD graduate in a tenure-track positions at one of the U.S. "top 25" departments: Michigan, Oklahoma, Cambridge, Paris I, Leeds, UC Irvine, Notre Dame, King's College-London, Catholic, Southern California, and Groningen. Of the top-ranked PGR programs, Michigan is, as in the past, the clear under-performer relative to its faculty strength. USC has, of course, only recently entered the top ranks of PhD programs, and I fully expect its placement to improve accordingly.
Below the fold, I list the graduate programs of the tenure-track faculty by each school; please e-mail me with corrections.
