Each job talk will have four parts:
- a 15-minute craft lecture on one poem of the candidate’s choice (this poem will be circulated to all in attendance)
- a 15-minute reading of their work
- a 15-minute introduction to/discussion of their work
- a 30-minute Q&A with the department
Kellye has sent links to the Box Folder with the candidates’ job material.
Justine Murison will request feedback on the candidates and their qualifications after their visits. When offering that feedback, please be sure to mention your interaction with the candidate—whether you attended a job talk, a meal, a meeting, or based solely on their material. The committee values your input, and we hope you can attend as many of these talks as possible.
