Blog Emperor Caron has some excerpts (it is otherwise behind a paywall). The chart overstates the hiring, since it includes all faculty appointments, not only tenure-stream academic lines. My anecdotal impression is that more schools are hiring, and hiring for more positions, this year–we won't get over 100 new hires, but I am guessing we will get to 80 or more (compared to 60 or 65 the last two years). With the enrollment decline over, schools can now budget for the future and start filling positions that need to be filled.
