Teaching assignments will mostly include courses in first-year writing, technical writing, and writing about literature, with the strong possibility for teaching upper-division courses on an as-needed basis and in relation to individual candidates' expertise. Summer teaching for additional compensation is available, subject to departmental need and funding.
