Technical Communication Journal Editor-in-Chief and Host Institution Request for Proposals

The Society for Technical Communication (STC) is soliciting proposals for the editorship of Technical Communication for a three-year, renewable commitment to begin 1 August 2015. The first issue for the new editor will be January 2016, but the appointed editor should be available to work with the current editor between 1 May and 1 August 2015. The new editor should be an accomplished scholar, a tenured member of the faculty, and a senior member of STC who is conversant with and committed to its goals. A successful proposal must demonstrate both the prospective editor's credentials and host institutional support for publishing the journal.

See the full Request for Proposal for information about the Journal, the Editor-in-Chief's responsibilities, and selection details.
