POSITION ONE: The first position will be for an associate or full professor to chair the department whose research interests are in either Greek or Roman literature.

Candidates for this position must demonstrate strong potential for research leading to scholarly publication and for excellent undergraduate teaching. Teaching responsibilities will include ancient Greek and Latin at all undergraduate levels as well as courses in translation; some preference will be given to candidates who can also teach Greek and/or Roman history.
