clay and glaze technology, mould-making
processes, and two or three-dimensional
media,

Applicants should possess a completed
MFA degree, a strong exhibition record,
college and/or university teaching experience,
demonstrated knowledge of ceramics history
and theory and a record of administrative
experience and committee service. Although
