We seek a candidate who shares our commitment to advocacy for educational and social justice, and effective practices in teaching, including the integration of appropriate technologies. We seek a colleague who both demonstrates and will foster in students a pluralistic notion of values and who challenges assumptions and stereotypes. The search will emphasize candidates who advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice through teaching, scholarly activities, and service engagements. Applicants should be able to facilitate graduate courses designed for school counseling candidates.

The School of Education has been preparing educators and counselors for the last 90 years. It is a graduate and professional School of Education with a strong focus on personalized education and experiential pedagogy.

The scope of work in the Department of Counseling and Human Services provides various opportunities for close working relationships with colleagues.
