The Philosophy Department is committed to enhancing the diversity of our faculty and welcomes applications from under-represented groups and members of all faiths.  Applicants should apply via this link Job Opportunities | Careers at St. Bonaventure University, sending a curriculum vitae, evidence of teaching effectiveness such as peer or student evaluations, contact information for three professional references, and a cover letter that discusses your approach to teaching and qualifications for the position given the description of responsibilities above.
