Founding Faculty Director
Institute for Global-Local Action and Study (I-GLAS)

Pitzer College invites applications and nominations for the tenure-line 
position of Founding Faculty Director of the emerging Institute for 
Global-Local Action and Study (I-GLAS).  I-GLAS is dedicated to promoting 
interdisciplinary curricular and research programs and activities that link the 
global and the local, and addressing key issues of globalization and its 
effects on communities and nations.  The Founding Faculty Director will provide 
strong academic leadership and vision for I-GLAS, infusing the College 
curriculum with critical community-based learning, research, and action 
initiatives that connect the global and the local, and encouraging 
faculty/student global-local research projects and new courses that build on 
the College's successful community engagement and study abroad programs.  He or 
she will also oversee the Institute's budget, teach two courses a year related 
to global-local issues, and advise students.  The successful candidate will 
hold a Ph.D. in a relevant discipline and have a strong record of research and 
teaching on global-local issues as well as extensive experience with 
community-based pedagogies, research, and intercultural education. In addition, 
he or she will have the intellectual expertise to engage with globalization as 
a multilayered, uneven, and contested process, complicated by race, social 
class, gender, sexualities, diasporas, immigration, and unequal citizenship.  
The Director will hold an 
endowed chair; the rank of this position is open.   

Pitzer College has a strong institutional commitment to the principles of 
diversity in all areas and strongly encourages candidates from underrepresented 
social groups.  We favor candidates who contribute to the College's distinctive 
educational objectives, which promote interdisciplinary perspectives, 
intercultural understanding, and concern with social responsibility and the 
ethical implications of knowledge and action.  Pitzer College is an Affirmative 
Action/Equal Opportunity Employer.  For the successful applicant with relevant 
interest, affiliations are possible with the intercollegiate departments of 
Africana Studies, Asian American Studies, Chicana/o-Latina/o Studies, and/or 
Women's Studies.  

To apply, send in PDF format, a letter of application, curriculum vitae, 
selected evidence of excellence in teaching and research, statement of teaching 
philosophy, statement on diversity, a description of your research, and three 
letters of recommendation (at least one (1) of which addresses your teaching 
effectiveness) VIA EMAIL to iglas_sea...@pitzer.edu.  The deadline for applying 
is December 1, 2010 or until the position is filled.
