Massachusetts College of Art and Design - Literature & Writing - Liberal Arts
Tenure-Track Faculty, Literature & Writing-Liberal Arts.

Massachusetts College of Art and Design seeks to fill a full-time tenure track position for the teaching of literature and expository writing in the Liberal Arts Department. The teaching load at this Massachusetts State University institution is three courses per semester and alternative and departmental responsibilities. Faculty serve on governance committees. English is not offered as a major.

We are looking for someone to teach, primarily, a required, chronologically organized course exploring the sources of Western culture through a survey of literature. Mandatory readings include Genesis, Iliad or Odyssey, a Greek tragedy, selections from Dante or Chaucer, and a Shakespeare play, augmented by other major works selected by the professor (e.g. Gilgamesh, Sappho's poetry, a synoptic gospel, selections from Virgil, Ovid or Catullus).

The Assistant/Associate Professor will teach freshman foundational courses (Written Communication and/or Freshman Seminar). At this time, the Assistant/Associate Professor will teach a Shakespeare elective in alternate years and will develop new electives for juniors and seniors related to the performing arts.

The department seeks candidates whose pedagogy favors close, attentive reading and practical criticism, not theory, and for whom works of literature are complex provocations to the imagination and to ethical inquiry rather than tracts or specimens for cultural studies. The Assistant/Associate Professor candidate should have an interest in western visual and/or musical arts, and a strong record of teaching experience. It is desirable that candidates have experience with a variety of teaching methods and/or curricular perspectives.

The candidate's area of expertise should engage and stimulate students' imagination, participation, and scholarship.

The Assistant/Associate Professor will be accountable for ensuring that affirmative action, equal opportunity and diversity are integrally tied to all actions and decisions for which they are responsible and which fall within the scope of the Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity/Diversity Plan.

Review of applications will begin on Friday, January 6, 2012 and will continue until the position is filled.

Q: Wait, what does this mean: "Additional documents not required by on-line application like dossiers, letters of recommendation, and writing samples are not required but may be submitted?" If they're not required, why would I submit them? Are they subtly hinting that I probably should send them that stuff, even though it's not required? Or is this for people who pass the first round of screening? Any ideas?

A: Not applying for this, but if I were, I would submit the minimum materials requested by the online application and then let them request other stuff (dossiers, writing samples) if they want to once they have reviewed the applications. I would guess this language is more HR boilerplate than subtle hint, but that might just be me .....

Q: And which position number should be indicated on the envelope: 004431, 008401, or 086120? Or all of the above?

A: In the absence of any additional information, I would put all three. Seems like this job ad is taking lots of shortcuts. Maybe since they have three positions and four desired emphases, they decided to just throw them all out there and let God sort 'em out (as it were). Sure doesn't make it easy on any of us, though.
