From a recent email message:
The City University of New York (CUNY) School of Law seeks tenure track or lateral candidates to teach in one of the following areas: Criminal Law, Torts, and Evidence, as well as in CUNY School of Law’s clinical program, specifically the Defenders (criminal defense) clinic. The Defenders Clinic seeks candidates with substantial trial and appellate level public defender experience, with a specific focus working on behalf of people serving life and long-term sentences in pursuit of gubernatorial clemency, parole, and/or resentencing.
Appointments are to begin no later than Fall 2024. Applications will be accepted until October 15, 2023.
CUNY School of Law is a national leader in progressive legal education, being top-ranked for public interest law and for clinical programs. CUNY is also the most diverse law school in the nation and has both a three-year full-time day program and a four-year part-time evening program.
CUNY School of Law’s mission is two-fold: training public interest attorneys to practice law in the service of human needs, and providing access to the profession for members of historically underrepresented communities.
The primary responsibility of each hire will be to teach law students in the courses and clinics stated above, along with other courses as part of a course package. Candidates must have backgrounds representing, or scholarship related to, the topics in which they seek to teach. In dialogue with the Academic Dean, all faculty at CUNY School of Law are expected to teach other subjects as needed, including required first-year Lawyering Seminars on a rotating basis, and are expected to teach in both the day and evening programs on a rotating basis.
