The History Department at Whittier College is seeking applications for a faculty fellow position in African-American U.S. history as part of the Bayard Rustin Fellowship program. Individuals who work on the historical intersections of race, class, and gender, are particularly welcomed. Rustin Fellowships are designed to attract faculty from underrepresented groups interested in teaching in a liberal-arts setting. Rustin Fellows teach three courses yearly at a salary of $67,000 plus a small research fund. The successful candidate will teach introductory surveys in U.S. history, as well as more specialized upper-division courses. The position is for one year, and renewable for a second year, pending favorable review. Fellows are eligible for tenure-track consideration, pending budgetary and administrative approval and, if A.B.D., completion of the Ph.D.
