Sorry--Skjaervo uses "Pahlavi" in the *World's Writing Systems* article!
"Pehlevi" is found in the one relevant German title he cites.

UC Irvine, highly unlikely; UCLA probably does have an Iranist, but I

specialty would probably be in an area studies department of some sort.

Also ask at USC's linguistics department.
