The diversity statement should describe the candidate's experience related to addressing issues of diversity, equity, inclusion, and antiracism in an academic setting and ways that they would contribute to these efforts at Lawrence.

In their teaching statement, candidates must address their commitment to fostering a truly engaged and supportive experience for a diverse community of learners.

Candidates are encouraged to read more about Lawrence at as well as and Colleges That Change Lives. The position will remain open until filled; for best consideration, submit materials by May 24th, 2024. For further information, please contact Judith Humphries ), the chair of the department.
