They are teachers first, but are also expected to be active in the campus community, the Chemeketa Writing Center, and in the program's administrative responsibilities.

The English program has long been a leader in innovative instruction at the college. English faculty have developed learning communities, online and hybrid courses, a writing center, and writing across the curriculum initiatives. The college supports continued growth and innovation with curriculum development funding, a dedicated professional development budget, a wide array of technical resources and support staff, and regular opportunity for sabbaticals. The program encourages and supports continued professional development, innovation, and creativity in all aspects of teaching and academic life.

As the college does not employ a system of academic rank or advancement, English faculty earn regular status based on positive performance reviews during three years of probationary status. The typical teaching assignment consists of two writing courses and one literature or film course each quarter during the academic year (with some variations). Chemeketa faculty are represented by the Chemeketa Faculty Association, an NEA affiliate. The CFA and a newly-formed Faculty Senate both provide additional opportunities for academic leadership and advocacy at the college.

Chemeketa serves a large, diverse three-county area through its central campus in Salem, a network of satellite campuses and centers, and by being a statewide leader in online education. Centrally located in Oregon's Willamette Valley, Salem, the state capitol, is very close to mountains, beaches, national and state parks, small towns, and the city of Portland.

Closing Date: Friday, February 14, 2014

Requirements: The successful candidate will have: An MA in English or Rhetoric/Composition, or MFA in a writing field, or MA in a related field with at least 24 graduate credits (quarter system) in English or Composition courses.

NOTES: Such a tremendously combative phone interview--immediately, beginning with the introductions--primarily because of the Phil Dept chair. I have no clue what his problem with English or literature is, but whatever the problem, it encompasses his entire view of the field and all who apply to teach in it. Two of the SC members apologized post interview for his behavior. Good luck to anyone who takes this job.

 * Email acknowledgment states that interviews won't be conducted until late January.
 * Oh my heavens, what a clusterfuck. Want that promised interview-confirmation email? Good luck! Want that HR rep to meet you at the assigned time and place for your interview? Good luck! Want to be interviewed by courteous--or at least stoically professional--faculty? Good luck! Want that promised reimbursement check from the same HR rep? Super good luck! Because, holy shit, you aren't going to get any of those things. What you will get, though, is a thoroughly degrading, unprofessional, and eye-opening experience with a nifty $500 price tag. Oh, and PS: According to the search chair, the college hates the surrounding community, and the community hates the college and all who walk within its grounds. It's just a hatefest going on over there, apparently.
 * Wow--That sounds awful!  I thought the email acknowledgment was a bit misleading as well.  What I received was "Interviews won't be conducted until late January," so I thought, great, I'm in the running.  Psych!  A week later "No interview for you."  Just send me the rejection; I don't need another email to get my hopes up.  Anyway, thanks for the honest update.

I could overhear them and their talking had nothing to do with any academic. Finally, one of them said that they should get this (meaning my interview) over with. One person was texting during my interview.  Other things happened too that I simply don't want to bother with here. Horrible. Horrible. The school is either growing in size or they have a high turnover rate in the English department because every year they are advertising for new facutly. I wouldn't
