Hiram College is an Equal Opportunity Employer committed to Excellence through Diversity!

Hiram College seeks an enthusiastic and dedicated researcher in Forest Ecosystems Studies to serve as the first Dennis J. Taylor Visiting Assistant Professor. This three-year visiting professorship honors Dennis J. Taylor, Ph.D. Hiram College`73, Professor Emeritus and Distinguished Professor of International Grants, to recognize his work in science education, ecology, and international programs, locally at the James H. Barrow Biological Field Station, and globally in the United States and throughout the world.

Background

In the 1950s, biology professors James H. Barrow and Dwight H. Berg instituted undergraduate research as an integral component of classes and independent studies. Their pioneering models using student-directed inquiry in diverse local and global environments made learning more effective, memorable, and fun. Decades ahead of other undergraduate programs in making these a regular part of the curriculum, Hiram College became a leader in establishing internships, improving learning outcomes, and motivating undergraduates to pursue advanced degrees in biology.  These early examples improving learning wove peer and near-peer mentoring into the fabric of K-12 outreach programs while simultaneously developing leadership skills in students. Berg and Barrow’s innovations became the model for dozens of Hiram College undergraduate research efforts, field programs, and international collaborations using science investigations to engage students.

Through a gift from Paul and Maxine Frohring, in 1967 Hiram College established its Biological Field Station just three miles from campus, providing facilities for animal behavior studies, genetics, and ecological research. The purchase included a large tract of un-timbered beech-maple forest, one of the largest remaining uncut stands in North America. The forest includes within it, pristine wetlands, and a cold-water stream, one of only four in the State of Ohio.  For more than five decades, these unique natural habitats, amplified by old field successional habitats and grassland establishment, have provided a main staple for research by undergraduates and established scientists. 

This endowment will fund both a visiting professorship in forest ecosystem studies, and undergraduate student internships that will further Hiram’s scientific understanding of the natural systems of the James H. Barrow Field Station in an age of unprecedented global warming.  Just as the Field Station became a magnet at its inception, attracting students and funding to Hiram College, this endowment is designed to do the same, positioning Hiram to continue to attract excellent students and retain the prominence of Hiram College as a leader in enhancing learning through undergraduate research and mentoring in science. The endowment will provide up to 10 internships per year to Hiram undergraduates and stipends for high school students who participate in this near-peer mentoring program.

Hiram College

Hiram College, established in 1850 as the Western Reserve Eclectic Institute, is a nationally recognized, private, residential liberal arts college located 30 miles southeast from Cleveland in Ohio’s historic Western Reserve region. At Hiram, close student-faculty interactions and educational innovation are routine.

All students participate in experiential learning through study abroad/study away trips, internships, and/or research experiences as part of the Hiram Connect initiative.

The student population at Hiram College is diverse in many ways – economic background, ethnic heritage, and academic interests. Hiram strongly encourages applications from members of all under-represented groups in higher education.

Search for a Visiting Assistant Professor

The endowment provides for a monthly salary and research stipend for a three-year visiting assistant professor in forest ecosystem studies.  The successful candidate will further field ecological investigations using the un-timbered forest habitats with undergraduate students as assistants.
