courses in music or in the College’s general education curriculum may be assigned to fill out the faculty member’s teaching load. Similar to all music faculty, the successful candidate will be expected to recruit music majors, particularly music education majors, for the private lesson studios, the School of Music, and the College. Applicants should have a completed doctorate in music consistent with the above workload (preferred), but we will consider candidates who have completed all doctoral coursework and are ABD.
