Hello,
I’m posting this on behalf of the fabulous Dr. Jessica Pauzek, Writing Program Director at Boston College, and would also add that we have a wonderful group of writing center colleagues in the Boston area that chat regularly if you’re someone looking for a job with built-in community!
Best,
Kristi
