Dear Campus Colleagues,

We are writing today to let you know that our SHARE Region HR teams are already working on details for next semester and want to share information about Spring 2025 ASE/GSR and Lecturer Hiring processes. Our goal, as in previous years, is to ask for your partnership in identifying these new hires as early as possible. Here are the important details for the next hiring semester based on what we know today to help with your preparation. The good news is that many processes will remain the same.

I hope this message finds you well, with summer off to a good start. I am writing to let you know in advance that SHARE staff will all be “out of the office” on Friday, June 14th. We will be together at our annual in person, all day meeting.
