not limited to, geophysical investigations of the dynamics and  
evolution of the Earth, planetary geology, natural hazard risk  
assessment, environmental geophysics, mineral and rock physics, and  
remote sensing.

We seek a colleague with enthusiasm and talent for undergraduate  
teaching in a liberal arts environment to students with varied  
interests and backgrounds.  The candidate should demonstrate broad  
interests beyond their specialty, and be willing to provide a balance  
of classroom, field and laboratory experiences for our students  
including opportunities for undergraduate student research.  Teaching  
duties will include both introductory courses in geology and physics  
as well as intermediate or upper-level electives in the candidate’s  
area of expertise.

Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the  
position is filled.  Candidates should submit a cover letter, a c.v.,  
a statement of teaching interests and philosophy, a statement of  
research experience and plans, and three letters of recommendation  
(to be sent under separate cover directly from the recommending
