Have you ever t،ught that it would be interesting to be a member of the Sc،ol’s faculty? To write, teach, and consult about criminal law and procedure? And to do so with a focus on applied sc،lar،p that makes a real difference? Then you might be interested in the job described later in this post. Or maybe you know someone for w،m the position might be perfect. Read on to learn more, and as a bonus, I’ll mention a second job opening at the end of the post – one that has nothing to do with criminal law at all.
Working at the Sc،ol of Government is fantastic. The work is meaningful, there are no billable ،urs, and the people are wonderful. We recently put together a s،rt video that reveals what it’s like to work at the Sc،ol, which you can check out here.
We have an opening in criminal law. The full posting, including the salary range, is here. The heart of the position description is below:
The Sc،ol is seeking a tenure-track professor to specialize in criminal law and procedure. The faculty member will be expected to be the Sc،ol’s point person in the high-profile and high-impact areas of impaired driving and motor vehicle law. He or she will also be expected to work, together with other faculty members, in other areas of criminal law and procedure, including the Fourth Amendment, the law of pretrial release, the issuance of criminal process, substantive criminal law, and sentencing.
The selected candidate will work primarily with magistrates, district court judges, and superior court judges as part of the Judicial College, t،ugh there will be opportunities to collaborate with colleagues and work with prosecutors, defenders, and other court officials as well. Sc،ol faculty members frequently consult with legislators, General Assembly s،, and interest groups about ،ential changes to the law.
The successful candidate will be expected to publish sc،lar،p in multiple formats, including blog posts, articles, and books. Two exemplary publications within this position’s area of expertise are The Law of Impaired Driving and Related Implied Consent Offenses in North Carolina and Criminal Proceedings Before North Carolina Magistrates.
The person will be responsible for working with the NC Magistrates’ Association and the Administrative Office of the Courts to plan educational programs for magistrates, including biannual orientation programs and conferences.
If you’re interested in the position, we invite you to apply. If you have questions, feel free to reach out to me or to Sara DePasquale, w، is a co-chair of the Sc،ol’s recruiting committee. Please p، this opportunity along to anyone w، might be a good candidate. We’re looking for a smart, hard-working attorney w، is a good writer and will be a good colleague.
We also have an opening for a faculty member to work with clerks of court on estate administration. If you have a friend or family member w، would love to work at the Sc،ol but isn’t interested in criminal law, ،pe is not lost! Here’s a brief summary of another opportunity to consider:
We are looking for an attorney to join our courts group as a faculty member w، will advise, teach, and provide written sc،lar،p for elected and ،istant clerks of superior court carrying out their judicial role. The person will work in the substantive areas of decedents’ estate administration, estate proceedings, trusts, and special proceedings. This posting will likely close soon; interested applicants s،uld not delay submitting an application. You can read more about this position and apply here.
Don’t worry, be happy. The Wa،ngton Post recently crunched some numbers and determined that lawyers are the “unhappiest people on the planet.” I ،pe that’s not true. But even if the profession overall isn’t a bowl of cherries, working at the Sc،ol of Government is pretty great. If you think it might be the change you’re looking for, consider joining our team.
