Position Summary
Under general supervision of Department Chair, a person in this tenure-track position is responsible for teaching graduate courses, advising students, and chairing doctoral dissertation committees. In addition to preparing for and holding classes [primarily online with some hybrid], teaching involves maintaining currency in the content area related to the teaching assignment, evaluating students' work, assessing student outcomes, maintaining appropriate records, and holding office hours. In addition, this individual will provide service to the department, college, and university and is expected to provide service to the community and/or the profession. The individual is expected to maintain an active, on-going program of scholarship appropriate to the discipline. Other duties may be assigned by the Chair or Dean. Anticipated start date is August 26, 2024. An early start of August 5, 2024, may be negotiable.
The department offers online and blended master's programs and a fully online doctoral program for those seeking to enter or advance careers in student or academic affairs in higher education. We prepare critically-reflective scholar practitioners for administrative student-facing and leadership roles, from entry-level academic advisors or hall directors to senior vice presidents of student affairs or adjacent areas such as enrollment management, academic affairs, and equity, diversity, and inclusion.
Specific course loads and arrays are assigned by the Department Chair on a term-by-term basis. The successful candidate can expect to teach several different master's and doctoral courses, most likely including, but not limited to SAA 708 Social Justice and Inclusion and SAA 820 Critical Analysis of Systemic Inequities in Education.
Learners in SAA graduate programs bring important professional backgrounds and personal lived experiences to our classrooms. Students work in a variety of functional areas, institutional types, and geographic regions, and many hold salient experiences as first-generation students, transfer students, students in recovery, or student parents. Instructors are expected to be inclusive of everyone.
Candidates should bring a depth of professional experience in student or academic affairs in higher education, ideally in non-instructional administrative leadership roles such as director of a student or academic affairs unit, dean of students, or another leadership role in student affairs, enrollment management, academic affairs, EDI (equity, diversity, and inclusion), or the like. Candidates should possess a thorough understanding of the professional competencies of ACPA – College Student Educators International and NASPA – Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education.
Ideal candidates also have emerging or established records of critically-reflective teaching and scholarship in higher education. Candidates must be committed to excelling in teaching adult learners in this applied program, in online and blended formats. The hire will have a flexible work schedule that includes evening or weekend work, to support the majority of students who continue working full-time in higher education while enrolled in our programs. UWL's Center for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning can offer support for those newer to online, blended, and hybrid teaching.

Information about UWL and the Surrounding Region
The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse is a top-rated, comprehensive University of Wisconsin campus, located in the beautiful Driftless Area of southwestern Wisconsin. Known for scholarship, academic rigor, physical activity and a close-knit community, UWL remains dedicated to its century-old mission to train the whole person — "the mind and body."
UWL has earned a strong reputation nationally for factors such as graduation rates, return on investment and great outcomes for low-income students. It is the No. 2 public college in Wisconsin on Forbes' 2023 America's Top Colleges list. And it is Wisconsin's top-ranked public university with fewer than 25,000 students, according to U.S. News & World Report's list of the Best National Universities.
UWL offers 130-plus degree programs from undergraduate to doctoral levels in the arts, social sciences and humanities; science and health; business; and education. UWL has three colleges: the College of Arts, Social Sciences, & Humanities, the College of Business Administration, and the College of Science & Health, as well as the School of Education and the School of Visual & Performing Arts. UWL has about 447 full-time faculty and instructional academic staff, including 82% with doctoral or terminal degrees.
UWL has strong student success programs that have contributed to a strong retention rate. This fall, students returned to UWL at one of the highest rates on record with 86.5% of the first-year class retained — the highest mark in a decade and the fifth-highest mark in the past 50 years.
UW-La Crosse's strategic plan Sustaining Excellence continues to move our community forward through its four pillars: increasing community engagement, achieving excellence through equity and diversity, investing in our people, and advancing transformational education.

The UW-La Crosse campus is in southwestern Wisconsin, nestled in a residential area of the City of La Crosse and positioned as part of a larger metro area with a population close to 140,000. The area, known as the 7 Rivers Region, is famous for its exceptional natural beauty, which includes the Mississippi River on one side, majestic bluffs on the other, and views of rolling farmland and forested valleys in between. Abundant water, woodlands and varying terrain provide ample opportunities for year-round outdoor recreation. Only a couple of hours from Minneapolis or Madison, La Crosse enjoys the affordability and charm of small- town living with larger city benefits. Three colleges, two world-class medical institutions, the La Crosse Symphony Orchestra, a restored 19th century downtown business district, and a number of galleries and art centers have made La Crosse a regional center for culture, entertainment, medical care, shopping, sports and recreation.
