================================================================  

The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobs/jobnet.html. This page has been set 
up so that people can report on the employment standards of various countries.

of external funding should be evident. Candidates should show evidence of
success in working with a diverse student population and in relating to
community groups. We are especially interested in candidates who can
involve our students in research and who are prepared to participate in
joint projects in the department or university. We are a department
