JOB ANNOUNCEMENT:
SPECIALIST in WRITING ACROSS THE CURRICULUM

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee is seeking candidates for a 
tenure-line faculty position within the Department of English, to begin 
Fall, 1997.  Pending budgetary approval, we are looking for an Assistant 
or Associate Professor with interests and scholarly expertise in 
Writing-Across-the-Curriculum, instructional technology, and faculty 
development.  The individual we hire must be willing to serve as 
assistant director of UWM's new Writing Intensive program.  The position 
offers opportunities to teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in 
the Department of English, and to work with faculty throughout the campus 
community.  Commensurate research and publication expected.

UWM is an urban campus situated on the "fashionable" east side of 
Milwaukee, near Lake Michigan.  With a population of approximately 18,000 
undergraduate students, the campus houses a nationally-acclaimed doctoral 
program in English as well as many other excellent undergraduate and 
graduate specialties.  With a sophomore-level Writing Intensive 
requirement recently mandated by the faculty in the College of Letters 
and Science, along with an innovative L&S Freshman Scholars Program and 
an outstanding First-Year Composition curriculum, UWM is now poised to 
more fully integrate writing within lower- and upper-division courses.

Please address questions and concerns to Professor Charles Schuster, 
Chair, WAC Search Committee.  Send an application letter, vita, 
references and a writing sample to:
	Professor James Sappenfield, Chair
	Department of English
	University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
	P.O. Box 413
	Milwaukee, WI  53201

Applications must be postmarked no later than February 28, 1997.

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee is an equal opportunity/affirmative 
action employer.  Applications from women and minorities are particularly
