History Faculty Member The Critical Social Thought (CST) Department at Holyoke Community College seeks a full-time tenure-track faculty member to bring vision and innovation to History courses within the department\'s CST Option. We seek candidates who will bring a broad grounding in US History to the department, and who can enhance our course offerings with specialized areas of expertise. Candidates with research or teaching on the history of animal advocacy, US Women\'s History, and/or US Environmental history are particularly encouraged to apply. Our ideal candidate will continue the department\'s tradition of interdisciplinary teaching with colleagues across campus and engaging with the external community via community-based learning. As part of the college\'s efforts to ensure equitable outcomes for all HCC students, candidates must bring a demonstrated commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion in their teaching practice, as well as a record of excellence in college-level instruction. Primary responsibilities include: teaching lecture classes on general US History as well as electives that serve the needs of students in other programs, notably Environmental Studies and Veterinary Tech; strengthening the ongoing development of our CST academic program via assessment and curriculum development; participating in college governance, recruitment and retention efforts; and professional development. In addition to teaching experience, candidates should also demonstrate a commitment to student-centered advising, and to building partnerships that will enhance students\' opportunities for career and transfer. Such partnerships may include internal collaborations with colleagues in the CST department as well as external collaborations to expand career and transfer opportunities for students who major in the CST, Environmental Science, and Veterinary Tech programs. Although hybrid teaching options may be available, this position will require a substantial amount of in-person, on-campus work with students, faculty, and community partners.
