National Louis University’s CLAVE grant seeks a committed and enthusiastic candidate to serve as a writing specialist. This is a full-time, one-year, renewable (grant-funded) position that begins in fall 2020 or winter 2021. The position will be online, including evenings and weekends, as well as in-person, when feasible, at NLU’s downtown Chicago campus, as well as some travel to the other four NLU campuses, and offsite locations in Chicagoland.
The purpose of the Writing Specialist position is to support graduate students in developing as leaders who are confident, impactful writers in their communities, which is in support of the CLAVE grant’s major goal: To collaborate with local communities to increase Latinx and other underrepresented individuals’ enrollment in and graduation from doctoral programs. This goal is embodied in the grant’s name, CLAVE, which stands for Colaborando con las Comunidades Latinas para AVanzar en Educación (Collaborating with Latino Communities to AdVance Education). In service of this goal, the grant team values candidates’ multilingualism, and experiences in social-justice work with Latinx communities and other marginalized communities.
