Abstract | In this article, the author discusses the difficulty of finding a faculty position at teaching-oriented colleges for graduate students who have had no classroom experience. He stresses that graduate students need professional exposure and guidance to prepare them for the teaching job. He also offers possible routes to help graduate students improve their job prospects at teaching-oriented institutions. He concludes that in the end, the responsibility for helping graduate students become better prepared for academic positions outside of the major research universities lies with the graduate programs and their faculties. Without their help, one will remain at a disadvantage as a candidate for jobs at small colleges and community colleges--a hard truth that many graduate programs could help to change. (ERIC). |
