The Department of Sociology at Colby College is hiring a three-year Visiting Assistant Professor starting July 1, 2021. Colby is a highly selective liberal arts college in a spectacular setting with a rich sociological history: it was here that Albion Small taught some of the first sociology courses in the country. We are searching for an early career scholar with an excellent track record as a teacher and a robust research agenda. Areas of specialization are open. The ideal candidate will have ample experience with teaching—including course design—a record of success advising and mentoring individuals from groups under-represented in higher education, and will show evidence of research productivity and promise. The teaching load is 4 courses per academic year. Review of completed applications will begin on February 19, 2021 and continue until the position is filled. A complete application must include: a curriculum vitae; letter of application that outlines the candidate’s research, teaching philosophy, and teaching experience (demonstrating commitment to the value of diversity and to inclusive teaching); representative samples of scholarship; and three confidential letters of recommendation. Materials must be submitted electronically to: http://apply.interfolio.com/82724 . Candidates may be A.B.D., but Ph.D. must be in hand prior to July 1, 2021.
