The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.
Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page at http://linguistlist.org/jobs/jobnet.html. This page has been
set up so that people can report on the employment standards of various countries.

The Department of Linguistics at the University of Victoria invites

scholarly achievement and a commitment to excellence in undergraduate and
graduate teaching.
The responsibilities of this position include MA and PhD student

To support diversity in our academic programs, we would encourage the

language. We seek an individual with the ability to contribute strongly to
the research profile of the Department and its administrative functions.
Collaborative, interdisciplinary research, teaching, and program
