Assistant Professor, Applied Voice/Director of Opera

We need to output HTML fragment with sections using

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, application instructions? Actually we must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should exclude sections like "Special Instructions To Applicants", "Required Application Materials", "Additional Application Materials", "The position is listed as ...", "FGCU is a State University System ...", etc. Also remove "Institutional Values & Behavioral Expectations"? That might be considered part of responsibilities? It's more about expectations; could be part of Responsibilities or Skills? But we need to preserve substantive info. However we must not include application instructions. The "Institutional Values & Behavioral Expectations" is not application instruction; it's about expected behavior. Could be part of Skills or Requirements? Might be considered part of Skills (interpersonal). But we need to decide. We have sections: Job Summary (description). Job Description (typical duties). Additional Job Description Required Qualifications. Preferred Qualifications. Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities. Institutional Values & Behavioral Expectations. We need to map to headings: About the role (summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (maybe required qualifications), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Benefits, Pay, Schedule only if present. The posting does not mention benefits, pay, schedule specifics. It mentions full-time, nine-month, multi-year renewable appointment. That's schedule? It says nine-month appointment. Could be schedule? Might be considered schedule info. But rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state nine-month appointment, which is schedule (duration). Could we include Schedule section with that detail? It says "full-time, nine-month, multi-year renewable appointment". That is schedule info. So we could include Schedule section with that. Benefits not mentioned. Pay not mentioned. We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience" etc. There's a phrase "commensurate with career stage" in Required Qualifications: "Demonstrated record of scholarly/creative achievement through presentation, publication, and/or performance commensurate with career stage". That's placeholder? It's a phrase but it's actual content; it's not a placeholder like "not specified". It's okay. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Assistant Professor". Good. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

We must ensure we preserve all substantive information. Need to extract details from the posting. Let's parse the posting. Job Summary paragraph: "The Bower School of Music and the Art at Florida Gulf Coast University seeks an experienced and innovative vocal pedagogue and opera stage director for a full-time, nine-month, multi-year renewable appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor beginning August 2027.

If you thrive in an environment of innovation, accountability and mutual respect, you will find a good home here." That's a lot. We'll need to put into About the role (summary) maybe a concise paragraph but must preserve all substantive info; we cannot summarize away detail. However we can keep the same sentences but maybe break into

and

as appropriate. The instruction: Use

for prose. So we can put the summary as a

containing the prose. It's okay to keep long paragraph. Responsibilities: The "Job Description Typical duties may include but are not limited to:" then a list of duties. We'll extract each duty as

Let's list duties from that paragraph: - Plans, prepares, and teaches assigned courses, including developing syllabi, instructional materials, and assessments; teaches other courses depending on expertise, interest, and department needs. - Delivers consistent, interactive, and engaging lectures aligned with curriculum goals and accreditation standards; maintains the highest standards of classroom instruction and engages in reflective self-assessment to ensure continuous improvement. - Holds regular office hours and provides academic advising and individual support to students; recruits outstanding new students and contributes to the retention and mentoring of student music majors. - Utilizes the University's learning management system and other instructional technologies effectively. - Collaborates with departmental faculty on curriculum development and program advancement and ensures curriculum outcomes and accreditation standards are met. - Establishes and maintains an active research program, including opportunities for undergraduate student involvement; demonstrates evidence of scholarly publication and grantsmanship; develops an active regional, national, and international profile in performance, research, and/or other creative activities and instruction of students. - Collaborates with faculty colleagues in the vocal and orchestral areas, the theater department, and sometimes community arts organizations to present opera, operetta, musical, or scenes performances during Fall and Spring semesters. - Takes responsibility for most production details, including the creation of the program and rehearsal schedule, set design, staging, musical preparation, lighting, costuming, makeup and hair, supertitles, marketing, advertising, printed program materials, organization of the stage crew and manager, and securing venues for off-campus productions. - Exhibits a thorough knowledge of operatic repertoire suitable for undergraduate, pre-professional artists and prepares students with needed skills to meet the challenges of the profession in vocal production and stage movement. - Develops and maintains community relationships with arts and other organizations; participates in professional organizations and service to the profession. - Engages in continued professional development and maintains professional skills appropriate to rank and field; participates in professional development activities that advance the quality of instruction and student learning. - Actively participates in departmental, college, and university committees and meetings and contributes to community, institutional, and professional service in support of the University's mission. - Participates in faculty evaluation, student learning assessment, and required training activities. - Participates in singing on the Bower School of Music and the Arts Nisita Faculty Artist Series and music ensemble concerts. - Communicates professionally and in a timely manner with students, colleagues, staff, and administrators; upholds the highest standards of integrity, responsibility, and excellence in all professional activities. - Complies with University policies, procedures, and the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). - Performs other duties as assigned.

  maybe with line breaks or

  . Since it's a list of requirements, better to use
  • . Use

    for prose but we can also use

    . The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So requirements list should be

      • . Good. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications: "Tenor, baritone, or bass voice. Full-time college/university teaching experience, to include successful collaboration in an academic environment with demonstrated record of professional work related to opera production." We'll put as

We'll put as
          • . Institutional Values & Behavioral Expectations: Could be considered part of Skills or maybe separate section? There's no heading for Values in our allowed headings. Could be part of Skills or Responsibilities? It's about expected behavior. Might be considered part of Skills (interpersonal). But we already have interpersonal skills. Could add as additional list items under Skills. However we must not invent sections; we can include them under Skills as additional items. That would preserve info. But we must not create a heading for Institutional Values unless we map to allowed heading. Not allowed. So we incorporate into Skills. Schedule: The posting mentions "full-time, nine-month, multi-year renewable appointment". That's schedule info. We'll put in Schedule section as

            . We must not include Pay or Benefits sections. We must not include application instructions etc. Now we need to output HTML fragment. Let's craft. Start with

            We need to ensure we don't duplicate lines. We'll copy the summary exactly as given, maybe preserve punctuation.
