    Appended is the newly compiled job listing from the Society for Cinema
    Studies--which was compiled by Henry Jenkins and Jane Shattuc.
 
    At 276 lines, I realize that this is perhaps a bit long for a normal
    SCREEN-L message. I figured that it was important enough to risk
    sending it out in its complete form.
 
    I will also, on Monday probably, put a copy of it on SCREEN-L FILELIST
    for acquisition that way (further details later).
 
    If this message causes any problems (due to its length) please let me
    know directly at [log in to unmask] and next time we will only post
    it on SCREEN-L FILELIST and not send it out to the entire SCREEN-L
    list.
