Assistant Professor, to be precise, which, of course, all writing should be.  Considering that the location of Hofstra University – Long Island! – is a fave of the Big Money Literary Scene in these United States of A, competition for the gig probably will be fierce. But if you’ve got the cred, this looks like a good one.
