 MOUNT ALLISON UNIVERSITY
 DRAMA PROGRAMME

 Applications are invited for a tenure-track position in Mount Allison
 University's interdisciplinary, undergraduate programme in Drama. The
 holder of the first full-time position dedicated solely to Drama will
 provide academic, artistic, and administrative leadership for a small but
 dynamic programme whose students often benefit from their association with
 Mount Allison's renowned programmes in Music and Fine Arts. The programme
 is integral to Mount Allison's mission of providing a liberal education of
 very high quality, and is supported by an active studio theatre that serves
 Drama Majors and Minors, as well as students who participate in Drama as an
 extra-curricular activity.

 Supported by theatre staff, the successful applicant will teach acting,
 directing, and principles of production and design, and will also be
 prepared to undertake a course which introduces students to dramatic forms,
 history, and literature. Ability to teach dramatic theory would be an
 additional asset. The appointee will direct major and studio productions,
 and will join those who have already begun to plan a new Centre for
 Performing and Fine Arts.

 Candidates for the position should have or be near completion of a PhD and
 have a strong commitment to excellence in teaching and creative activity.
 Subject to budgetary approval, the appointment will be made at the rank of
 Lecturer or Assistant Professor, and will commence on July 1, 2004. An
 application should include a curriculum vitae, a statement of teaching
 philosophy, and a statement of artistic objectives. In addition, three
 letters of reference should be mailed directly to:
