Duke Law School invites applications for a full-time instructor to teach in its JD writing program beginning July 1, 2020.

LARW is a graded, two-semester, four-credit course. LARW sections have no more than 30 students (in recent years the norm has been 26-28). Upper-level writing seminars have generally been two-credit, simulation-based courses offering significant practical experience. Their enrollment is capped at 14. Candidates are encouraged to think creatively in designing an upper-level seminar of their own. Candidates must have superior academic records and at least four years of experience in practice (which may include clerking). Teaching experience is also preferred and candidates with significant transactional practice experience are especially encouraged to apply. To apply, please submit a cover letter, resume, writing sample, and a list of at least three references by October 1, 2019. Address applications to Jeremy Mullem, Director of Legal Writing.
