The Graduate Program in Second Language Acquisition at the University of

prepared them to contribute to diversity and inclusion. Applicants are asked
to summarize their leadership efforts, and past or potential contributions to
diversity in their Statement of Contributions to Diversity. Contributions
might include leadership in teaching, mentoring, research or service towards
building an equitable and diverse scholarly environment and/or increasing
access or participation of individuals from historically underrepresented
groups.

equal employment opportunity, and will not discriminate against any employee

genetic information, political affiliation, and gender identity or expression.
Minorities and women are encouraged to apply.

This search is contingent upon the availability of funds.
