It looks like someone has started an image pool on Flickr to collect diagrams from anthropology and other related disciplines. Unfortunately, they aren't all as interesting as this one, but they're fun to look at anyway, especially if you are a diagram junkie like I am. This image can be found in The Art of Anthropology: Essays and Diagrams.

A prospective doctoral student interested in the anthropology of Japan recently inquired about what schools I'd recommend. I posted a list last year but thought I'd update it for 2007:
* Italics = denotes junior faculty member who may or may not be taking on graduate students.
I'll keep updating this list, if you have any suggestions, additions, corrections, feel free to e-mail me or drop a comment below. Last updated: 2007/09/23
One piece of important information that you should have before entering into salary negotiations is the AAUP national salary survey. This gives average figures for assistant / associate / and full professors at schools across the country. Even community colleges are counted.
Note that the figures for schools with large business schools, law schools, or engineering schools are usually inflated as faculty in those divisions tend to make more than those in the humanities or social sciences.
Also, you need to ask whether your school is paying you on a nine-month salary or a twelve-month. AAUP adjusts all of their data to 9-month salaries, so if the school is offering you US$120,000 for a 12 month salary (let me know where!), AAUP will count it as "only" getting US$90,000.
