Academic Positions

Adjunct Instructors in The Hunter College Asian American Studies Program
The Hunter College Asian American Studies Program Seeks Adjunct Instructors for 2008-2009.

The Hunter College Asian American Studies Program (AASP) currently invites applications for adjunct positions. Courses to be taught include ASIAN 210.00 (Asians in the U.S.), the program’s interdisciplinary survey course in Asian American history and experience, as well as other, more specialized, courses (Asian American Women’s Literature, South Asians in the U.S., Asian Americans and the Law, etc.). Given the breadth of courses offered by the AASP, we are ideally seeking a candidate who is comfortable with an interdisciplinary approach to teaching a variety of subjects related to Asian American history and experience, although specializations in Korean American, South Asian, and/or Southeast Asian American issues are particularly welcome. M.A., M.F.A., ABD, and PhD applicants in relevant fields will be considered.

Born out of the Third World Student Strikes that began in 1968 at San Francisco State University, the field of Asian American Studies continues to critically examine and interrogate the experiences and complex subject formations of Asians in the U.S. Founded on the initiative of students and faculty in 1993, the Hunter College AASP is a small but dynamic program, with a core group of instructors and affiliated faculty in English, Sociology, Urban Affairs, Political Science, and Film/Video. Our instructors are genuinely dedicated to the students they teach, and we are seeking candidates who demonstrate service to the community as well as innovation and commitment in the field.

Applicants should understand the complexities of a diverse student body and be familiar with teaching interdisciplinary courses that examine the intersections of race, class, gender, and sexuality. Candidates must have successful backgrounds in teaching at the undergraduate level and be effective, organized, and have outstanding communications skills.

For additional information about the Hunter College AASP, please contact the Program Coordinator or see our website: www.hunter.cuny.edu/aasp

Artist in Residence in Ceramics at Cranbrook Academy of Art
This is a unique position, just as Cranbrook has occupied a unique place in American educational history. There is no prescribed curriculum here; no standard program of study. Instead, working with a small number of graduate students in an intimate studio environment, our Artists in Residence each create their own teaching program. Each Artist in Residence heads their own department, and they are its only faculty member. They choose their own students and are responsible for the success of their departments. Aside from managing their programs, our Artists in Residence have only one other major responsibility: making art. They are all active artists, and their work appears in many of the world’s foremost galleries and collections. This is a full-time appointment that commences September, 2008. Cranbrook’s salaries and benefits packages are competitive, and all Artists in Residence are provided with a professional studio as well as on-campus housing as part of their appointment.

Requirements:
Candidates for this position must be working artists with a sustained record of peer recognition; a demonstrated commitment to college-level teaching; a Masters Degree or higher; administrative experience; excellent communication skills; the ability to provide a productive and interactive learning environment; and the capacity to make a meaningful and memorable contribution to their
field and to this important and unusual school.
Please send a letter of interest/statement of philosophy, a curriculum vitae, names and contact information for 5 references, and a portfolio of professional and student work (which can include up to 20 double-sided pages).

Deadline:
Applications are due by March 1, 2008, however, the search will continue until the position is filled. Candidates are encouraged to submit their materials using a shipping service that can track their submission. Cranbrook is not
responsible for lost or damaged portfolios. Portfolios should also include a self-addressed, postage-paid envelope if return is desired.
