Hiring Announcement: Suffolk University Law School

From an email message that I received this morning:

Suffolk University Law School in Boston invites applications for a full-time tenure-track position at any faculty rank to join our Legal Practice Skills Program starting in the 2022-2023 academic year. Legal writing faculty are responsible for teaching the required first-year Legal Practice Skills (LPS) course that covers legal research, reasoning, writing, and oral advocacy. Experienced LPS faculty have the opportunity to teach in other areas as well. Support for professional development, such as travel to academic conferences and scholarship support, will be provided.

We welcome applications from anyone who has a strong commitment to teaching legal writing and a record or promise of significant scholarship. Interested candidates should provide a resume or curriculum vitae and a cover letter addressed to Professors Rosa Kim and Stephen McJohn, co-chairs of the LPS Committee. Candidates are encouraged to describe previous activities mentoring members of underrepresented groups, describe how issues relating to diversity and inclusion have been or will be addressed in their courses, or how their scholarship contributes to building and supporting inclusive communities. All materials should be uploaded to the Suffolk University website at https://jobs.jobvite.com/careers/suffolkuniversity/jobs?__jvst=Career%20Site.  Candidates should not send duplicate materials to the Chairs of the LPS Committee.  
 
Suffolk University is an affirmative action, equal opportunity employer. The University is dedicated to the goal of building a diverse and inclusive faculty who contribute to the robust exchange of ideas on campus and are committed to teaching and working in a diverse environment. We strongly encourage applications from groups historically marginalized or underrepresented because of race/color, gender, religious creed, disability, national origin, veteran status or LGBTQ status. The search committee is especially interested in candidates who, through their research, teaching, service and/or experience, will contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community.
 
Suffolk University does not discriminate against any person on the basis of race, color, national origin, ancestry, religious creed, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, age, genetic information, or status as a veteran in admission to, access to, treatment in, or employment in its programs, activities, or employment.
