The editor reserves the right to edit all copy and to refuse ads. Send ads, including camera ready copy, to the Editor at the American Studies Association, 1120 19th Street, NW, Suite #301, Washington, DC 20036; Phone: (202) 467-4783; Fax: (202) 467-4786;

The American Studies Association publishes “Employment Opportunities” as a service of ASA to both employers and job applicants. ASA recommends that all positions for American Studies practitioners should be advertised in “Employment Opportunities.” Association members should notify appropriate officials at their institutions of this service and advise them to take advantage of it.
Information in listings is assumed to reflect bona fide openings at the time the ads were placed. Applicants should contact employers for more complete information or changes in the job listing. All applications and inquiries for a position should be acknowledged promptly and courteously. The ASA expects institutions in the U.S. to adhere to Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employment practices.
