Dear Publoreans,<br>
As many of you know, the Folk Studies MA program at WKU has been suspended pending Board of Regents and SACSCOC (the university’s accrediting body) approval. The undergraduate program and the Kentucky Folklife Program continue, and we have opened two searches
 this week, for a Folklife Specialist and for a one-year instructor in Folk Studies.<br>
The Folklife Specialist works with KFP Director Brent Bjorkman to carry out all aspects of KFP programming.  Joel Chapman has served admirably in this role since 2019 and has recently left to begin a new position as Program Associate in Folk and Traditional
 Arts with Mid-Atlantic Arts. While we are sorry to see him go, we are proud and excited for his next journey!<br>
The one-year full time instructor will teach in-person graduate courses next year such as Cultural Conservation, Museums, and others (undergrad and grad) depending on expertise. PhD or ABD required.<br>
Information on each position can be found here:<br>
