"Priority will be given to candidates in the areas of race/ethnicity, class and/or gender."

so is this an intersectionality post or a post for people in race, or class or gender? If I'm just a straight gender person should I even bother?

[damastes]

I believe this would fit those who have a field in 'race & ethnic studies' or 'race, class, and gender'. I would say it would not hurt to apply, especially if your work overlaps current research in the department. You can also email the chair of the search committee & inquire about whether you fit what they are looking for.

I had a great meeting with them at ASA and if you are a gender person, I think they would welcome your application.
