Russian and Russian Studies at Wheaton College:
Visiting Assistant Professor or Instructor of Russian

The Department of Russian at Wheaton College in Massachusetts seeks 
applicants for a one-year post in Russian. This post combines a 
part-time post with a semester sabbatical replacement; it is full time 
and for one year only. The successful candidate will teach six 
courses, but these must be distributed as follows: two in the fall and 
four in the spring. Courses will include three levels of Russian 
language and one course in English on Soviet and current Russian 
literature.

Requirements:
-- PhD in Russian languages and literatures preferred, ABD considered.
-- Native or near-native fluency in both Russian and English.
-- Experience teaching Russian in an American college or university.
-- Field is open, but we are particularly interested in candidates 
with experience in  advanced Russian language courses, cultural 
studies, and Soviet and post-Soviet literature. Our most pressing 
concern is to find someone with evidence of strong language teaching.

Salary: this is a non-tenure-track visiting position, $42,000 for the 
year, with benefits.
  
Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the 
position is filled.
E-mail applications are fine, but please send paper copies as well.

dossier or three letters of reference to:
