The Department of Linguistics and Cognitive Science at Pomona College
invites applications for a tenure-track appointment in linguistics at
the Assistant Professor level, effective July 2003. Candidates should
have a commitment to undergraduate teaching in a small, nationally
ranked liberal-arts college where there is an emphasis on both
high-quality instruction and research.

The research specialization is left open. Candidates should have a
teaching interest in cross-linguistic variation, first-language
acquisition, morphology, or field methods. Candidates will also be
expected to contribute to core courses in syntax, semantics,
phonetics, or phonology, and to the introductory course in
linguistics.

The candidate should have a broad intellectual engagement with the
field of linguistics and be interested in relating his/her research to
cognate fields. He or she will be part of an active linguistics and
cognitive science research group. Preference will be given to
candidates who will have finished the PhD and who have teaching
experience.

Pomona College is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We especially
encourage applications from women and members of under-represented
groups. Please send dossier, including letter of application,
representative publications/writing samples, teaching evaluations, and
