I didn't see this already listed, although it looks like it was posted on the ASA job bulletin a while ago.
Assistant Professor – Tenure Track
Hobart and William Smith Colleges seek candidates for a tenure track assistant professorship with teaching and research interests that focus on Urban Sociology. The successful candidate will be expected to teach a course entitled “The Sociology of the City.” Other related courses might include urban politics, urban policy and planning, urban poverty and inequality, urban ethnography, world cities, migration and immigration, demography, or labor markets. The ability to teach classical social theory is also highly desirable. The Colleges encourage service-based learning and support an ambitious program of off-campus and foreign study, and candidates with interest in public sociology and cross-cultural/comparative study will be especially welcome. The successful candidate must also be committed to the teaching of Introduction to Sociology, which is a shared responsibility within the Department. The Colleges’ curriculum emphasizes interdisciplinarity, and the successful candidate will be expected to participate in the Colleges’ Urban Studies interdisciplinary program. Other interdisciplinary programs of interest to candidates may include Public Policy, Critical Social Studies, Environmental Studies, Africana Studies, Architectural Studies, American Studies, and Women’s Studies.
Ph.D. strongly preferred, although A.B.D. candidates will be given some consideration. Evidence of strong teaching and scholarly ability required.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please send a curriculum vita, statement of teaching philosophy and teaching and research interests, writing sample, and sample syllabi and assignments, and arrange for at least three letters of reference to be sent to:
