Visiting Position in Linguistics
Linguistics Program
Carleton College

The Linguistics Program invites applications for a one-year
visiting position, beginning in September, 1999, probably
renewable for a second year. Rank and specialization are
open, though preference will be given to candidates with
expertise in syntax and/or morphology. Salary will be
commensurate with experience. Ph.D. is required at the time
of application.

The Carleton Linguistics Program has one regular faculty
member, who is the Director of the Program. Responsibilities
of the visitor include teaching five courses during the
first year, one in the fall term, two in each of the winter
and spring terms. (A six course load is normal at Carleton.)
During the second year, the visitor would teach two courses
each term and be the Acting Director of the Linguistics
Program, as a leave replacement.

We will begin reviewing dossiers on December 1, 1998 and
continue until the position is filled. Interested persons
should send a letter of application, a current curriculum
vitae, one representative paper, and the names and addresses
of three references to:
