Thank-you to Christopher Gehrz, Chair of the History Department at Bethel University, for sharing the following job announcement with the Emerging Scholars Network.  As you may remember Christopher Gehrz edited  The Pietist Vision of Christian Higher Education: Forming Whole and Holy Persons  (InterVarsity Press, 2014). In spring 2015, Tom had the opportunity to hear Chris present on  Does Pietism Offer a ‘Usable Past’ to Churches Today?  at Messiah College. Looking forward to connecting with him further on this topic. Stay tuned. . . .

Opening: History Dept, Full-Time Position (Bethel U)

Bethel University (MN) is seeking to fill a full-time faculty position in the Department of History, as a three-year appointment in the College of Arts and Sciences starting Fall 2016.

Teaching responsibilities amount to seven courses or equivalents per year: courses in digital humanities, ancient and medieval history, and a team-taught course in Bethel’s general education curriculum; coordination of the digital humanities major, including course development, student recruiting, internship supervision, and grant writing. General faculty responsibilities include student advising as well as department and committee assignments.
