[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, go check out the two-body problem threads on the Chronicle of Higher Ed. fora. Academia is a unique beast, and, yes, if he wants a TT job, he'll be moving. --Moved after my PhD. Interviewed in MD, NH, AR, NC, CT, KY, & VA. [/quote] The thing is, my husband will NOT be direct with me about what he wants. He seems to be very flexible. He applied for both a PhD in stats and engineering. I asked him which one he preferred and he said he didn't care. [/quote] But if he's applying for academic jobs then he just doesn't have the control over it the way you think he does. I would do as PP suggests and arm yourself with info. Then I would sit down with him and say, "Frank, I've been reading up on TT jobs in your field and it sounds like they are tough to come by and will be hard to get in this area. We need to talk about this as a family and I really want to know what you think." [/quote]
