your views on up front reference letters for faculty positions i e reference letters that must be supplied by the application deadline before the applicants have been evaluated or filtered in any way

while back linked to a dan davies piece on the politics of unrealistic numbers davies piece critiques the british government s claim that a few tweaks to bank regulations could prompt up to 80 billion pounds of additional business lending that s a unrealistically huge number for reasons davies discusses so the phrase up to ends up doing a lot of rhetorical work using the phrase up to allows you to write down an unrealistically huge number thereby grabbing the reader s attention and in this case hopefully approval but without saying anything false the phrase up to merely specifies the upper end of a range while leaving the lower end unspecified and without specifying anything about the probabilities of different outcomes within the range of potential outcomes a change in bank regulations that might lead to up to 80 billion pounds worth of additional business lending could actually reduce business lending without the up to claim being false what does this have to do with ecology well this sort of up to claim crops up all the time in ecology it s a common rhetorical device in ecology papers talks and popular science articles about ecology but it often crops up implicitly rather

replies poll on up front reference letters for faculty positions posted on july 20 2026 by jeremy fox 7 you don t have to read the eeb faculty job board ecoevojobs net for long before you encounter complaints about faculty jobs that require reference letters up front i e require reference letters for all applicants by the application deadline however it s often unclear if these complaints are coming from letter writers themselves or from job seekers who are complaining on behalf of imagined letter writers as i noted in an old post in a different context some profs are happy to write as many reference letters as they re asked for at least so long as they have sufficient advance notice but of course comments on ecoevojobs net and on that old post of mine are anecdotes they might not be representative of broader opinion i m curious to get a larger and somewhat less anecdotal sample of opinion so below is a short anonymous poll asking your opinions on up front reference letters for faculty positions you may complete the poll whether or not you write reference letters for faculty positions and whether or not you re currently on or have ever been on the faculty job market looking forward to your responses share this share on x opens in new window x share on facebook opens in new window facebook share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a link to a friend opens in new
