Additional responsibilities include advising students, assessing student learning, curriculum development, and providing service to the department, university, and community. Candidates must demonstrate a strong commitment to teaching undergraduates in a liberal art setting and provide evidence of excellence in teaching and continued professional development, as well as the ability to collaborate with colleagues across campus. Selected candidates must complete a background check that is satisfactory to the university and be qualified to teach in the US.
