The following announcement may of interest to a geophysicist - while the
search is under the aegis of Environmental Studies, it has been determined
that the individual hired will report to the physics department (I'll be
happy to discuss off-list
why this is the case!).
Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies
Randolph-Macon College invites applications for a tenure-track position in
earth science, beginning in Fall 2000. The successful applicant must have a
Ph.D. in geology or closely related field and the willingness to work
collaboratively in teaching and research with faculty from other
disciplines. Teaching experience and experience in a private liberal arts
college are desirable. Teaching responsibilities include introductory
geology, an upper-level course in water resources, an introductory course in
environmental science, the introductory course sequence in the Environmental
Studies (EVST) major, the EVST senior seminar course, and other new
upper-level electives in the applicant's field of specialization. The
successful applicant must also initiate and sustain an active undergraduate
research program. Randolph-Macon College is a selective coeducational
liberal arts college in Ashland, Virginia, fifteen miles north of Richmond
and ninety miles south of Washington, DC. To apply, send a letter of
