Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs
Earlham College invites confidential inquiries, nominations, and applications for the position of Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs.
Earlham College boasts a diverse student enrollment of 677 students hailing from 47 states and 54 countries, and is distinguished in the quality of its students, staff, and faculty. It is a Phi Beta Kappa institution, a Peace Corps Prep college, and one of the 40 Colleges That Change Lives. Since 1847, Earlham College has fostered a collaborative learning community that inspires and motivates students with transformative opportunities and experiences-so they can become catalysts for good in a changing world.
Earlham provides its undergraduate students with more than 40 areas of study , a 3+1 education program that results in a Master of Arts in Teaching, and several graduate degrees at the Earlham School of Religion . In addition to these programs, Earlham also offers applied minors for students seeking to integrate their academics with other experiences, and pre-professional programs in pre-engineering, pre-law and pre-health . Applied minors are distinctive programs based around a theme and allow students to make direct connections between academic interests and co-curricular activities. Each applied minor creates a space for students to integrate 4-6 academic courses, co-curricular work such as service or athletics, and a final project appropriate to the content. Through these programs, students become active, involved learners. In the last 10 years, Earlhamites have won 26 Fulbright awards, 13 Watson Fellowships, and two Rhodes Scholarships-some of the most prestigious awards available for international study and travel. More than 60 percent of Earlham students spend a semester or more studying abroad before graduation.
As the Chief Academic Officer, the College's Provost serves as the key architect, advocate, and representative of the College's academic program and faculty interests to both internal and external constituents. The Provost will build on Earlham's excellence in the classroom and strengths in international and experiential education while bridging traditional academic boundaries on campus and beyond. The Provost reports directly to President Anne Houtman and consults with the Board of Trustees on matters of educational policy, faculty recruitment, professional development, and retention.
