Where untenured tenure-track faculty at the “top 20” U.S. PhD programs got their PhD 2017-18 edition (UPDATED AND CORRECTED)

MOVING TO FRONT AGAIN–REVISED AGAIN

The following universities have the most PhD graduates in "top 20" philosophy programs for 2017-18 ("top 20" is construed loosely to include some on the cusp given the last PGR).  For some schools PhD graduates of cognate programs (like HPS at Pittsburgh, and Logic & the Methodology of Science) are also counted, given their close ties to philosophy.  The number of graduates of each school currently in untenured tenure-track positions appears in parentheses after the name of the PhD-granting university. 

1.  Princeton University (8)

2.  New York University (7)

2.  Rutgers University, New Brunswick (7)

4.  University of California, Berkeley (6)

5.  Massachussetts Institute of Technology (5)

6.  Columbia University (4)

6.  Harvard University (4)

6.  Oxford University (4)

6.  Yale University (4)

10.  Cambridge University (3)

11. University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (2)

11. University of Pittsburgh (2, both HPS)

The following schools have one PhD graduate each in an untenured tenure-track position in the "top 20" currently:  Stanford University; Cornell University; University of Chicago; University of Maryland, College Park; University of Wisconsin, Madison; University of York; University of California, Los Angeles; University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; University of California, Irvine; University of Western Ontario; University of Texas, Austin; University of Arizona; University of Leeds; University of California, San Diego; University of Paris I-Pantheon/Sorbonne; University of Toronto; University of Potsdam.  Below the fold is a listing of the PhDs at each "top 20" school; please e-mail me with corrections.
