The Publications Committee of AATSEEL announces the search for a new editor
of SEEJ.

The current editor, Professor Stephen L. Baehr, will step down in December
of 2001, following publication of issue no. 4 of that year. The appointment
of his successor will cover the subsequent five volumes of SEEJ (through
issue no. 4, 2006). In order to insure a smooth transition, tasks will be
transferred in stages, beginning in July 2001. The new editor will assume
total responsibility as of January 1, 2002. A modest honorarium accompanies
this position.

The position requires a serious commitment to the field of Slavic languages
and literatures as demonstrated by an established reputation as a scholar
and teacher. Those interested should submit a proposal including, but not
limited to, the following: (1) their curriculum vitae and those of proposed
associate and/or assistant editors; (2) a discussion of the qualifications
of the proposed personnel; (3) their views of the future of SEEJ, including
any proposed changes from its present format; (4) a proposed budget
detailing the extent of potential support provided by their home
institutions (e.g., released time, student or graduate assistants, postage,
telephone, office space, word-processing facilities); and (5) a statement
of support from the department chair and/or dean.

It is desirable (but not required) that item (1) above includes the
designation of a book review editor. The term of the current book review
editor, Sibelan Forrester, expires in August of the year 2001. If the
proposed new book review editor is at a different institution than the
proposed editor, a description of the support to be provided by the home
institution of the book review editor should accompany the application.

The publications committee will begin to review applications in June of
2000, and intends to select a new editor by September 2000. Preliminary
inquiries about the position are strongly encouraged. Applications and
requests for further information may be directed to Professor Kevin Platt,
Department of German and Russian, Pomona College, 550 N. Harvard Avenue,
Claremont, CA 91711 (kplatt at pomona.edu).
