Hi, Everyone,

Miami University has posted their opening for up to 10 Heanon Wilkins Fellows for visiting positions https://jobs.miamioh.edu/cw/en-us/job/502250/heanon-wilkins-faculty-fellowsvisiting-assistant-professor-or-instructor

Here are some excerpts from the ad:

Miami University’s Heanon Wilkins Fellows program recruits annual cohorts of up to ten (10) scholars whose interests align with Miami’s core values of diversity and community with a particular commitment to inclusive excellence. Heanon Wilkins Fellows are paired with dedicated mentoring and intentional preparation for a career in higher education, ideally as members of Miami’s permanent staff or faculty. [. . .]

We welcome scholars from all disciplines to apply as faculty fellows. We are particularly interested in scholars who will deepen our campus’ interdisciplinary research strength around sustainability and environmental justice [. . .]

The fellowship is for a minimum of one academic year (9-month faculty appointment) with a strong possibility of reappointment. Faculty fellows have reduced teaching responsibilities in order to foster a vibrant research program. All fellows engage in mentoring and career development; and participate in discussions on inclusive pedagogy and diversity organized by the Offices of Institutional Diversity and Inclusion and the Provost.

The ad does not mention technical communication/rhetoric/writing specifically, but applicants from those fields are welcome to apply. So if you know of potential applicants, please share widely.

Thanks,

Heidi

Miami University carries the name of the Myaamia people who, along with the Shawnee, were forcibly removed from these homelands. Despite centuries of colonization, the Myaamia people preserve a deep connection to this land and are engaged in a vibrant resurgence of their heritage language and culture. 

The university maintains a strong reciprocal relationship with the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma grounded in our shared commitment to learning and each other.
