Dear Colleagues,
I want to draw your attention to the following job description
for a two-year visiting position at Reed College in Portland, Oregon.
SOUTH ASIAN, MIDDLE EASTERN AND/OR AFRICAN HISTORY AND WESTERN
HUMANITIES:
The History Department of Reed College invites applications for a
two-year
visiting appointment in the history of the colonial and/or post-colonial
history of South Asia, Middle East, or Africa and in Western Humanities.
We welcome applications in all relevant areas and sub-areas, but we have
some preference for an historian studying the history of the British
empire, its territories or former territories. Besides a range of
departmental courses the appointee will also teach in a team-taught,
year-long course in Western Humanities (ancient Greece and Rome).
Teaching
duties include advising year-long senior theses. Reed College is a
small,
distinguished undergraduate institution with a strong liberal arts
curriculum, committed to excellence in teaching and scholarship, with
particular stress on teaching critical historical reading and writing.
Applicants should have the Ph.D. in hand or near completion by June,
2001.
We expect to make the appointment at the assistant professor level, but
are
willing to consider applications from more senior candidates. Please
send
an application letter, CV, and three letters of recommendation to
Professor
David Sacks, Chair, Search Committee in History, Reed College, 3203 SE
Woodstock Boulevard, Portland, OR 97202. Fax: 503/788-6638. The
deadline
for applications is November 10, 2000. The Search Committee expects to
conduct preliminary interviews at the AHA Convention in Boston. Reed
College is an EO employer.
