Greetings, IS doc students! I'm writing this (long) email to ask for your help.

The School of Information Sciences is conducting a search for a tenure-track assistant professor. During the first two weeks in May, we will be hosting (via zoom) some terrific candidates for interviews, and we need your help with this important process.

How? Both candidates will make a research presentation, followed immediately by a 30-minute meeting with undergraduate, master’s and doctoral students. We know this is an exceptionally busy time of year, but hope you'll attend both of these if you can--the student meeting will provide an especially good opportunity to chat with the candidates about their teaching and research in a less structured format.

Here is the information for the two presentations and student meetings (names withheld for applicant privacy):

After the interviews, please visit https://tiny.utk.edu/sis_asst-prof_stu-2 to share your feedback about the candidates (note: the form won't be activated until after the interviews begin).

Your voice is incredibly important in our efforts to select the strongest faculty member to join our department. After all, whomever joins us could be your instructor, advisor, and/or mentor.

Thank you for your assistance-you are essential to the life of the School!
