faculty research. Additional responsibilities may include supervising
structured internships for ESS students working in community settings
relevant to exercise, fitness, and health.

scholarship; an earned doctorate in health education, exercise science, or
a related field by Fall 2005; experience working with community groups on
health and fitness promotion projects; willingness to work in a culturally
