> Dear Natasha Artemeva:
> Could you please post the attached advertisement for a Senior
> Instructor Position in our Department. The deadline has now been
> extended to October 31.
> Could I point out that this position is really more attractive than it
> looks. Although the contract has to be renewed every 4 years, renewal
> can be expected unless performance has significantly deteriorated. The
> position is a regular faculty position, with all the salary increment
> possibilities and standard benefits (like health and pension)
> available to research faculty. And, lastly, the starting salary would
> be commensurate with experience and would, therefore, in most cases be
> above the stated floor. There are no research responsibilities; hence
> the teaching load is 12 units/year (8 4-month courses). I would
> appreciate if you could advertise this position as widely as possible
> and include this explanation.
> Thank you.
