We wish to hire faculty committed to providing a powerful individual and collective learning experience where students serve as the primary providers of legal services, under close faculty supervision.

Diversity—of life experience, perspectives, and approaches to lawyering—is essential and a high priority. We seek faculty who are deeply engaged in intellectual activities outside of teaching, whether through scholarship, public talks, or otherwise. We highly value collegiality and institutional citizenship.
