World Religions Faculty Position Posted on October 9th, 2009 by

Recommendation from the Faith Task Force:

Create an additional tenure line in the Religion Department for a World Religions position.

Additional explanation:

Currently 9 of the 10 tenure lines in the department are positions in Christian theology, ethics, and scriptures. The current need for this position has been filled by a series of one-year term appointments. The tenure line would provide a more long-term approach to meet the demand from students for the department to expand course offerings in other traditions and would allow for the hiring of the best quality candidate who could engage more thoroughly questions of interreligious dialogue. The additional tenure line should be established within the next two years.

This recommendation was placed in the Tangible Resources Strategic Framework Substantive Category using the language:

Create an additional tenure line in the Religion Department for a World Religions position.

This recommendation was placed is Tier 2 and is being monitored by the Provost and Dean of the College.
