"The last academic year has been a difficult one for those seeking jobs in the field of religion. A joint report
by the American Academy of Religion and Society of Biblical Literature
-- released Tuesday -- found that 452 positions were listed with the two
organizations during the 2013-14 academic year, down from 548 the year
before. While not all religion faculty jobs are listed with the two
groups, their listings are considered a good general measure of the
health of the academic job market. The latest figures are well below the
652 listings in the 2007-8 year, the last one before the economic
downturn hit."
