Guide for Using the Job Information List
Notice on Tenure Policies
US and CanadianDepartments
The Modern Language Association recommends that department
administrators and their representatives inform candidates before or
during the interview about prospects for tenure in the specific position
under consideration and about the tenure policies and practices in their
departments and institutions. If the information is not offered, candidates are urged to inquire about these policies.
The main body of the Lt'st, arranged in alphabetical order by state,
contains information on definite or possible vacancies and notices from
departments that expect no vacancies but would nevertheless like to
keep resumes on file.
Read through this section item by item to see which departments
would welcome your letter of application or inquiry at this time. Send
letters only to departments expressing an interest in a person with your
qualifications. If a notice states that no vacancies are expected but that
the department would like to maintain a file of prospective candidates,
you must decide in each case whether it is worthwhile to write.
Comparative Literature and Linguistics and ESL Sections
Notices in these fields have been separated out from the main body
of the issue and placed under the appropriate heading.
Acknowledgment of Applications
Acting on a recommendation from the MLA Delegate Assembly, the
MLA Executive Council has adopted a policy calling for departments
to acknowledge all applications for announced positions either by letter
or by self-addressed postcards provided by applicants.
MLA Policy on the Reimbursement of Job Seekers
General Advice for Candidates
Be sure that your dossier (transcript, letters of recommendation, and
other material ) is ready to be sent out by your placement bureau to
any department that requests it. Prepare and duplicate a one-page vita
sheet to enclose with any letters of application or inquiry. In your letter
of application, it is probably wise to express a willingness to be interviewed at the department's convenience. Professional meetings provide
a convenient opportunity for such interviews (see MLA convention information on p. iii ).
While it is important to begin to search for a position immediately,
you should be aware that liiring goes on all yeats Surveys indicate that
only about half of all English and foreign language departments have
begun recruiting by the end of December and that the majority of departments do not complete the recruiting process until spring, in some
cases until summer.
Bear in mind that the candidate who has not limited his or her
search for a new position to a particular geographical area or kind of
institution is most likely to find a position. Do not discount the small
colleges where one often has the opportunity to teach a wide selection
of courses to students of varied backgrounds.
M LA JOB I N F OR M AT I ON L IS T
The following policies were recommended by the Delegate Assembly in December 1999 and approved by the MLA Executive Council
in February 2()()().
It is MLA policy that:
• Departments that require that job applicants send their application
materials by express carrier reimburse those applicants for the cost
of such shipment; and
• Departments that require multiple copies of writing samples and
other application materials from job applicants reimburse applicants for the cost of duplicating their writing samples and other
materials; and
• Departments that require books will return them to the applicant;
and
• Departments that invite job applicants for on-campus interviews
reimburse those applicants who accept such invitations for the
costs of travel and accommodations incurred when visiting the
campus for interviews.

much useful information and advice to assist candidates in organizing
their job searches confidently and competently. Copies of the C:tt'td»

Members of the Association have often considered it to be their duty, in
order to indicate their support of the principles vio/ated, to refiain fiom accepting appointment to an institution so long as it remains on the censure hst. Since
circumstances diffi.r svidely fiom case to case, the Association does not assert
that such an unqualified obligation exists for its members; it does urge that,
before accepting appointments, they seek information on present conditions
of academic fieedom and tenure fiom the Association's Washington office and
