Lab Director >Date: Fri, 3 Aug 2001 12:33:08 -0400 I will be leaving CUA toward the end of the month (after 4 great years) and so the position as Director of the Multimedia Language Center will be available. This is a wonderful position for someone interested in starting out in the field. It is quite an intensive position, but with alot of freedom to it. I will be available on weekends or evenings to help train the new director, so he or she will not be totally without some help. Also for more information on the department you can check out our website at http://arts-sciences.cua.edu/ml or head to CUA's website to find out more about the university (http://www.cua.edu). Here is the job description and information on how to apply. Obviously as my departure is rather bad timing (classes start the Monday after I leave) things will be a bit rushed for hiring. I believe they are aiming for interviews toward the beginning of September with a start date by October 1 if possible.
