Two senior hires for St Andrews: Dickie from Toronto, Berto from Amsterdam

The Department of Philosophy at the University of St Andrews has announced two senior hires:  Francesco Berto (logic, philosophy of logic, metaphysics) will join St Andrews in the summer of 2018 from the University of Amsterdam; while Imogen Dickie (philosophy of language, mind and action; epistemology) will join St Andrews in summer 2019 from the University of Toronto.  The St Andrews/Stirling joint program ranked 3rd in the U.K. in the most recent PGR surveys, before these hires with a score of 3.4, trailing Cambridge at 3.6.  It's possible these new senior appointments would push the program into a tie at 2nd with Cambridge.
