Apply: TETYC Editorial Board openings

[ten grrl]

Good afternoon!

The TETYC editorial board has three openings this year for three-year terms. Sept 2022-July 2025.

We have a need for a member from TYCA Northwest: https://www.tyca-pnw.org/

and a member from TYCA Northeast: https://www.tycanortheast.org/ 

We also have one at-large member open.

The region-specific openings require two-year college faculty from those regions. The at-large opening may be from anywhere in the country and may teach at a four-year institution (but should be deeply familiar with two-year college English studies, the institution-type, and writing studies).

Please send a letter of interest and a CV to Sarah Johnson (National TYCA Chair) and Darin Jensen (TETYC Editor) by Sept 30th if you are interested. 

Qualifications

 

Board members will be familiar with two-year college English studies and scholarship, including writing studies, basic writing and developmental education, English language learners, transitions into first-year writing, including dual and concurrent enrollment, literacy education, technical and business communication, the teaching of literature and creative writing, transfer, as well as professional issues affecting the field. Board members may be established or new scholars.

Meetings

 

The board, along with reviewers, will meet annually at the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) annual convention. The meeting will be chaired and organized by the TETYC editor.

 

Term

 

Board members may serve a three-year rotating term. Board members will help advise the new editor when she begins her term. Terms will begin with a volume year (September) and will end with a volume year (May).
