Benjamin Vogt and Jaclyn Cruikshank Vogt invite applications from colleges
for two tenure-track assistant professor positions: one in creative writing
(poetry & nonfiction), Native American literature, and environmental
literature; the other in twentieth-century American literature specializing in women's
and gender studies, ethnic literature, and with an interest in digital
humanities. Both have taught a full array of courses and have a PhD in their
field with a collection of books, journal publications, conference
presentations, departmental service, teaching awards, fellowships, and
scholarships, along with employment in marketing, journalism, editing, writing
centers, and esl tutoring.
Successful colleges will be in the upper Midwest,
rural or semi urban, diverse, flexible, creative, and academically rigorous
while encouraging multiple perspectives, thinking outside the box, and offering
interdisciplinary courses. Preferred qualifications include an integrated study
abroad program, collegial faculty, an innovative benefits package, and an
ecologically-progressive campus. Colleges may apply by emailing bervogtATgmail.com and attaching a letter
of application with department philosophy and mission statement. If interested, we will proceed by sending you more information, including vita and teaching portfolios. Applications
will be accepted until positions are filled. The Vogts are equal opportunity
employees, encouraging applications from diverse candidates.
