Job Description

The successful candidate will have broad interests and competence in the history of philosophy. We have preference for candidates whose work and/or teaching experience engages art or the philosophy of art, including film.

The position is teaching intensive, involving two courses per semester. Beyond class instruction, each of these courses includes a significant component of individualized or small-group work with students. We encourage candidates to familiarize themselves with the https://www.sarahlawrence.edu/undergraduate/ before applying and to indicate in their letters how they envision working in this format.

Applications should include the following documents: cover letter; CV; statement of teaching philosophy, including consideration of pedagogical and curricular inclusivity; evidence of teaching effectiveness (e.g., teaching evaluations); two sample syllabi for courses that the candidate might offer at Sarah Lawrence, including at least one course in aesthetics and the philosophy of art; a sample of academic writing; and three letters of recommendation.
