CFA—Sectors Editor
We are seeking a new co-editor of our section newsletter, Sectors. This is a great opportunity for a junior scholar to become involved with the section and network with other individuals in our subfield. The newsletter is published semi-annually (in the fall and spring semesters) and includes Council and section news, feature stories, calls for papers and other opportunities in the field, and the section’s official reports. Sectors is e-mailed to all current section members through the listserv and posted on the section’s website.
The co-editor will have a two-year term from August 2018 to July 2020. During the first year (2018-2019), the new editor will work in a team with one of the current co-editors. During the second year (2019-2020), they will continue working with a new co-editor selected in 2019. Both co-editors will work collaboratively to shape the content and formatting of the newsletter. They will seek out and develop original content for the newsletter and maintain regular features.
