<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The Agnes Scott College Department of English invites applications for a tenure-track position at the level of assistant professor in creative writing with a specialization
in poetry. Desirable secondary fields include creative nonfiction, fiction, and cross- or multi-genre work. The successful candidate will participate in and help shape a strong creative writing program that includes a reading series, a project-based senior
seminar, and an acclaimed Writers' Festival going on its 42nd year. Many of our creative writing majors go on to MFAs and PhDs. The teaching load is 3-2, and every department member teaches one first-year English course each year and contributes occasionally
to the first-year seminar program. We seek an active writer-scholar with a significant and promising publishing record and a commitment to undergraduate liberal arts learning. Candidates must have the MFA or PhD in creative writing in hand by August 2013.
To apply send letter, CV, and three recent letters of recommendation to Christine Cozzens, chair of the Department of English through Interfolio via the MLA Job Information List or at englishsearch@agnesscott.edu (electronic submissions only). Additional materials,
including writing sample, syllabi, teaching evaluations, and official transcripts will be solicited from selected applicants later in the hiring process. The deadline for receipt of applications is October 30, 2012.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
