The position begins August 26, 2015. Minimum qualifications include Ph.D. by date of appointment; evidence of excellent scholarly potential; and commitment to teaching, research, and program service.

The Division of Humanities and Arts encompasses eight departments and includes internationally distinguished professors. The faculty collaborates in interdisciplinary programs at the college and provides a high-level liberal arts education to a diverse student body.
