The successful candidate will have earned at least a master's degree in English and demonstrate a strong commitment to teaching in a liberal arts undergraduate curriculum. Candidates must be comfortable with technology and experience with Moodle is a plus. Course enrollments are capped at a reasonable size, and instructors are compensated per course. Candidates should apply electronically. Applications should include a cover letter, CV and three professional references. Review of applications will continue until positions are filled. Selected candidates must successfully pass a background check. Young Harris College is proud of its Wesleyan heritage and commitment. The College was founded by a Methodist circuit-rider, and its namesake and sustainer during the institution's formative years was one of the state's outstanding Methodist laypeople. For several years, all Presidents of the College were ordained Methodist ministers, with Young Harris later appointing professional educators who were active lay leaders in the Methodist Church to the presidency. Today, Young Harris is a member of the North American Association of Methodist Schools, Colleges, and Universities (NAAMSCU), a voluntary association of over 100 private schools, colleges, universities, and seminaries in the United States that cooperate to advance the common good of member institutions and to address issues of mutual concern to the church and the academy. Young Harris is also a member of the University Senate of the UMC's General Board of Higher Education and Ministry (GBHEM), making the institution eligible for funding from UMC agencies. Young Harris supports the UMC's commitment to "open hearts, open minds, and open doors." For more information about the College's affiliation with GBEHM, follow this link: GBHEM .
