Dear FEASTers,

 you please help me by distributing the following job ad for an opening 
 in Ethics at Oregon?

 long-established emphasis in feminist philosophy, requires all grad 
 students to take two courses in feminist philosophy, has a faculty 
 consisting of 4 women and 5 men at the moment, generally has a grad 
 student (MA/PhD) population that is near or over 50% women, and attracts 
 some of the best feminist grad students in the country. We'd love to 
 have a strong pool of women/feminist applicants for this position! In 
 addition, Eugene is a beautiful place to live, about an hour from very 
 high mountains and the stunningly beautiful Oregon Coast, and home to 
 the Willamette and McKenzie rivers.
