The Department of Linguistics and Asian/Middle Eastern Languages seeks a

status. We strive to build and sustain a welcoming environment for all. SDSU
is seeking applicants with demonstrated experience in and/or commitment to
teaching and working effectively with individuals from diverse backgrounds and
members of underrepresented groups.

The person holding this position is considered a "mandated reporter" under the
California Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting Act and is required to comply

employment.

A background check (including a criminal records check) must be completed
satisfactorily before any candidate can be offered a position with the CSU.
