<div>Hello All - </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Pardon me to adding to the list of job openings, but it is the season!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are seeking a dynamic educator-researcher to join our department at the advanced-assistant or associate professor level. Because classes at Colorado College are taught on the ‘block plan’ (i.e. students take only one class at a time for 3.5
weeks & there are 4 blocks/semester, with a maximum of 25 students/class; students can also dedicate blocks to independent research), there are abundant opportunities to engage creatively with our highly-motivated undergraduate students both in the field &
the laboratory, as well as the classroom. Doing so can be a challenge, but it is also amazing rewarding. Our department, and CC in general, is a great place to work, and being in Colorado sure doesn’t hurt. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>See the attached for more details in the position, and please feel free to pass it on to anyone else you know who may be interested!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div><br>
