The Department of Romance Studies invites applications for the position of tenure-track Assistant Professor of Spanish with specialization in the field of early Spanish literature and culture with a July 2020 starting date, pending budgetary approval.

In enhancing our curriculum in Spanish as well as BU’s Program in Medieval Studies and/or other interdisciplinary programs, we support with enthusiasm the University’s belief that “success in a competitive, global milieu depends upon our ongoing commitment to welcome and engage the wisdom, creativity, and aspirations of all peoples.” We believe that the cultural and social diversity of our Department is vitally important to the excellence of our academic programs, and we encourage applications from candidates who will contribute to the diversity and inclusiveness of our teaching, research, and learning.

Applicants should submit through Academic Jobs Online a letter describing teaching and research interests, a diversity statement, a full curriculum vitae, and contact information for three references.

NOTES:

Discussion
- I suggest that we strike listings after their deadlines pass. This way, it will be easier to find those open postings. R1. This is a good idea! R2: Striking listings after the deadline would defeat the purpose - people check the wiki after applying to see if others have posted info about receiving interviews, etc. OP: We can strikethrough the listings. They are still visible but it's clear that deadlines have passed. Example.

- Wouldn't it be better if we just list the main info of each posting instead of including the entire description? (following the format from last years' wiki). R1. I agree. The current format is so hard to read through and find information fast. R2: Just click on the link next to "Contents” at the top of the page. That will give you the list of the positions with just the name of the university and basic title, and then you can click on that to jump down to the full description and updates. Sometimes having the entire description can be useful, because some postings are hard to find (if they aren't posted on the MLA list or the Chronicle), and often they are erased from those sites after the deadline. The way the page is formatted this year conforms to how almost all the other wiki job pages are formatted. R3: Thanks for the answer, R2. I just noticed the list at the top.
