Ling Anthro at Middlebury College

[Sheridan, Michael J.]

Hi everyone.  I've joined the list in order to post this job ad.  Middlebury College is looking for a tenure-track linguistic anthropologist (at long last).  Below is the official job ad.  We're planning to interview candidates at the AAA meeting in San Francisco, but if anyone has questions about the position, or about life in small-town Vermont, please feel free to ask.  

SOCIOLOGY/ANTHROPOLOGY
MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE, MIDDLEBURY, VT 05753.  The Sociology-Anthropology Department invites applications for a tenure track position in linguistic anthropology beginning in the Fall of 2013.  The successful candidate must be able to offer introductory and upper-level courses in linguistic anthropology, contribute courses to the Linguistics program, and teach courses in anthropological methods and introductory sociocultural anthropology. Geographic area is open, but preference will be given to applicants who complement existing areas within the department. Appointment will be at the Assistant Professor level.  Applicants must show evidence of teaching excellence and have an active research agenda.  
Middlebury College is a top-tier liberal arts college with a demonstrated commitment to excellence in faculty teaching and research. An Equal Opportunity Employer, the College is committed to hiring a diverse faculty as we work to foster innovation in our curriculum and to provide a rich and varied educational experience to our increasingly diverse student body.
All applications must be received by December 1, 2012.  If candidates seek to be interviewed at the AAA meetings, all materials must be submitted by November 1, 2012. Middlebury College uses Interfolio to collect all faculty job applications electronically. Email and paper applications will not be accepted. Through Interfolio, submit a letter of application addressed to Search Committee SOAN/LNGT, curriculum vitae, graduate transcript, and three current letters of recommendation, at least two of which must speak to teaching ability/promise.
