examine the "crisis" state of the current academic job market. Conventional labor market indicators, however, often suggest more favorable conditions for new doctorates than one would expect given growing feelings of pessimism within the halls of higher education (Barkume 1996-97). Although many professional associations and university administrations keep records of their graduates' placement success, statistics on the academic job market are not coordinated, easily available, or consistent across disciplines. 1 In this article, I first consider whether perceived changes in academic employment can be documented empirically. Second, I suggest that it is important to share information about the current structure of the job market and the composition of faculty in higher education with current doctoral students seeking a realistic picture of career opportunities. Third, I conclude by suggesting that more empirical data about the job market must be collected before an accurate model of how changes in the marketplace affect doctoral education and employment can be constructed
