Adjunct
Information (For MFA and MA English students only)
A very limited number
of one-course adjunct and graduate assistant teaching positions, primarily
in freshman composition (English 1 and English 2), may be available for
applicants who have classroom teaching qualifications. If you wish to
be considered, write directly to the department chairperson, Professor
Ellen Tremper; include an up-to-date curriculum vitae and a one-page description
of the way you would approach teaching such a course. Applicants without
prior college teaching experience are encouraged to accept special department
tutorial assignments, which may lead to actual teaching in subsequent
semesters. Those teaching for us for the first time are generally required
to enroll in English 778, Theories of Composition, which is offered in
both the fall and spring semester. This course is a practicum in the teaching
of writing that is recommended for tutors as well.
MFA/MA applicants
must wait until they have been accepted before applying for these positions.
