Seeking Associate Course Coordinator

INGL 3103/3104 is the largest multi-section course offered by the English Department. With 18 faculty members and TAs, 41 sections, and 1,107 students, there is a significant need for a key person to support the on-going requirements of managing the course to insure its smooth functioning. Nevertheless, this position has not been filled since the Fall of 2006. The 3103/3104 Associate Course Coordinator would specifically be charged with assisting the Course Coordinator in her oversight of INGL 3103/3104. Some of the responsibilities of this position include but are not limited to the following:

  • Taking detailed minutes of meetings and reviewing these with the course coordinator
  • Preparing photocopies for meetings
  • Publicizing the meetings
  • Acting as a liaison between the course coordinator, committee members (everyone teaching the course) and TADs coordinator(s)
  • Assisting in final exam preparation

Please note that there is no salary for this position. Nevertheless, it provides an excellent opportunity for professional development and resume enrichment. In addition, based on the satisfactory fulfillment of the responsibilities outlined above, a recommendation by the Course Coordinator will gladly be provided upon request.

If you are interested in this opportunity, you should email Dr. Mary E. Sefranek a one paragraph introduction and description of the particular skills, insights, or experiences you would bring to such a position. Ideally, associate course coordinators should have taught at least one semester of 3103 or 3104 prior to applying.
