South Texas College of Law Houston (STCL) invites applications from both experienced and entry-level faculty for a one-year visiting position teaching legal research and writing for the 2024-25 academic year. LRW faculty teach the required first-year legal writing course, which includes legal research, legal analysis, legal writing, and oral advocacy.
