Associates will be individuals with outstanding professional expertise relating to the Center’s work. Center Associate status is intended for those whose work with the Center is for a sustained period of time. Associates will be expected to contribute to the Center’s research, externally-funded engagement, and/or scholarship during the appointment period. The Associate status proffers formal recognition of an individual’s accomplishments and expertise, and includes the Associate into a community of scholars and practitioners with complementary interests. Appointments are non-salaried and will be made for a specified period of time (typically an academic semester or academic or calendar year, although in unusual circumstances – which must be specified – a shorter period of time may justify an associate appointment).
Associates are nominated by a Center administrator or research staff member, and they are appointed by the Center director. Each associate’s specific responsibilities will be negotiated with a member of the senior research team with final review by the Center’s Director. Appointments are renewable when circumstances justify ongoing relationships with the Center.
