Sabbatical Replacement at UW

UPDATE: We are pleased to say that we have filled the position. Thank you for your inquiries.

Here is an opportunity to get some low-stress teaching experience outside your home institution.

University of Wyoming. Laramie, WY: We are seeking to hire a visiting instructor (ABD near completion) for a sabbatical replacement, either for the entire AY '08-'09 with a 1-2 load or for just the Spring of '09 with a 3 course load. Teaching duties will include a section of Introduction to Philosophy and the possibility of a graduate level (M.A.) seminar in your dissertation area. There are no service or advising duties. AOS and AOC are open, though we have a very slight preference for someone who can teach a seminar on Kant's First Critique. (We are more interested, however, in simply getting somebody good who will be fun to have around for the year!) Salary is $15,000 plus benefits. The University of Wyoming is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer. Send dossier including a personal letter of application, vita, transcripts (unofficial), teaching portfolio including teaching evaluations, and three letters of recommendation to: Professor Ed Sherline, Head, Department of Philosophy, College of Arts & Sciences, Dept. 3392, 1000 E. University Ave., Laramie, WY 82071. Mail inquires to Sherline@uwyo.edu. We are not doing formal interviews for this position, nor are we formally advertising it. We will fill the position as soon as we find a strong applicant. For more information see: http://www.uwyo.edu/Philosophy.
