From: "Brownell, Susan E." <sbrown...@umsl.edu> Date: Friday, March 8, 2013 5:48 PM To: Diane Zorich <dianezorich at comcast.net> Subject: FW: Endowed Professor position in Museum Studies
The University of Missouri-St. Louis is conducting a search for an endowed professorship in Museum Studies (job advertisement attached). After receiving a limited pool of applicants in our first attempt, we are now broadening our search. We are hoping to hire someone to start in August, but at this late date that could be negotiated. I am hoping that you can help me get out the word. This is an endowed professorship with its own program budget, so we aim to attract a senior scholar. The successful candidate will direct the graduate program in Museum Studies. S/he would have a tenure home in one of the three collaborating departments (History; Art and Art History; or Anthropology, Sociology, and Languages). Thus, candidates should have sufficient academic qualifications to qualify for tenure, and should also have sufficient experience in museum work to carry out the primary duty of the position, which is to train museum professionals. The ?community history ? in the job title may be misleading; the current director of the program, who is retiring, has a Ph.D. in anthropology. Could you please forward this advertisement to any likely candidates, or suggest their names to me so that I may contact them personally? Thank you for your help in advertising this position. Sincerely, Susan Brownell Professor of Anthropology and Chair, Department of Anthropology, Sociology, and Languages University of Missouri-St. Louis St. Louis, MO 63121 USA +1(314) 516-6451 (office) +1(314) 223-8158 (cell) +1(314) 516-7235 (fax) sbrownell at umsl.edu <mailto:sbrownell at umsl.edu> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
