Assistant Professor of Social and Digital Media in Journalism

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule etc. We need to include only sections that have real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate like login instructions, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Should fold minor metadata into short

or drop it. We need to parse the posting. Key content: - Institution: University of Arkansas, Fayetteville (founded 1871, land grant, Carnegie top 2%, etc.) - Benefits: university contributions to health, dental, life and disability insurance, tuition waivers for employees and families, 12 official holidays, immediate leave accrual, choice of retirement programs with university contributions ranging from 5 to 10% of employee salary. - Pay: Salary Is Commensurate With Experience And Qualifications. (That's vague; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "Salary Is Commensurate With Experience And Qualifications." That's not a specific number or range; it's placeholder. According to rule: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). So we should NOT create a Pay section. - Schedule: Not specified. The posting mentions "standard nine-month faculty appointment", "2-2 teaching load", "in-person position". Could we create a Schedule section? The rule: only include section when posting has real, specific content for it. "Standard nine-month faculty appointment" is specific about appointment length. Could be considered schedule? Might be better to include under Responsibilities or About the role. But we could create a Schedule section with that detail? However schedule usually refers to work shift, hours, etc. The posting does not give specific hours. It says "standard nine-month faculty appointment" and "2-2 teaching load". That's more about duties. I'd avoid Schedule section unless explicit. - Benefits: we have specific benefits listed, so we can create Benefits section. - Responsibilities: we have duties: 40% Teaching or Professional Performance, 40% Research/Scholarly and/or Creative Activities, 20% Academic Service Activities. Also teaching responsibilities may include existing courses, develop new courses, etc. Also service, research, etc. Also "Regular, reliable, and non-disruptive attendance is an essential job duty, as is the ability to create and maintain collegial, harmonious working relationships with others." Also "Most university classes are offered face-to-face, and extensive in-person engagement in such activities as office hours, student advising, and departmental, college, and university committee meetings is essential". So we can put Responsibilities. - Requirements/Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Also required documents etc. But required documents are application instructions; we should remove application instructions per rule: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should not include Required Documents, Special Instructions, etc. However we might keep qualifications. The rule says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Application instructions are to be removed. So we should omit sections about documents, contact info, etc. However we might keep "Recruitment Contact Information" maybe considered boilerplate? It's contact info for questions; could be considered application instructions. Safer to remove. - About the department/institution: we have a paragraph about University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, its mission, location, etc. Also About The Department paragraph. That could go under About the role or About the department. We could have an "About the role" section summarizing the position: tenure-track Assistant Professor of Social and Digital Media in Journalism, start August 2027, standard nine-month faculty appointment, etc. Also mention Democracy as a Public Good cluster hire. - Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; we could infer from qualifications but better not to create Skills unless explicit. Thus sections: About the role (or About the position), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe split into Minimum and Preferred), Benefits. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. So we won't put the title as heading. We need to preserve all substantive info: include details about institution, benefits, duties, qualifications, etc. We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract substantive paragraphs. Institution description: "Founded in 1871, the University of Arkansas is a land grant institution, classified by the Carnegie Foundation among the nation’s top 2 percent of universities with the highest level of research activity. The University of Arkansas works to advance the state and build a better world through education, research, and outreach by providing transformational opportunities and skills, fostering a welcoming climate, and nurturing creativity, discovery, and the spread of new ideas and innovations. The University of Arkansas campus is located in Fayetteville, a welcoming community ranked as one of the best places to live in the U.S. The growing region surrounding Fayetteville is home to numerous Fortune 500 companies and one of the nation’s strongest economies. Northwest Arkansas is also quickly gaining a national reputation for its focus on the arts and overall quality of life. As an employer, the University of Arkansas offers a vibrant work environment and a workplace culture that promotes a healthy work-life balance." That's about the institution. Department description: "About The Department The School of Journalism and Strategic Media at the University of Arkansas is fully accredited by ACEJMC, offering a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism with concentrations in Broadcast Journalism, Journalism, and Multimedia Storytelling and Production, as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Advertising and Public Relations. SJSM also offers a Master of Arts in Journalism and Strategic Media – in total serving about 1,000 undergrads and grads in AY25-26." Also earlier: "School of Journalism and Strategic Media (SJSM) in the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Arkansas invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Social and Digital Media in Journalism to start in August 2027. This is a standard nine-month faculty appointment." Also mention: "Through its Democracy as a Public Good Initiative, the College will advance the University’s land-grant mission by expanding capacity to generate knowledge that informs public understanding, contributes to policy and practice, and connects Arkansas to national and international conversations about societal good." Also: "Faculty hired in this position will have an opportunity to be a part of Fulbright College’s multidisciplinary Democracy as a Public Good cluster hire at the University of Arkansas." Also: "The successful candidate for this position will have an opportunity to join a community of scholars committed to confronting major issues, generating new knowledge, and providing research-based solutions that investigate and strengthen democratic culture for people living in Arkansas and beyond." Also: "This is an in-person position. Most university classes are offered face-to-face, and extensive in-person engagement in such activities as office hours, student advising, and departmental, college, and university committee meetings is essential to advancing student success and departmental effectiveness. Regular, reliable, and non-disruptive attendance is an essential job duty, as is the ability to create and maintain collegial, harmonious working relationships with others."

The successful candidate will have opportunities to develop new courses that complement and expand the School's curriculum in social and digital media." Research: "The successful candidate will maintain an active program of research and/or scholarly/creative activity and contribute to the School's undergraduate and graduate curricula." Service: implied. Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications: - A terminal degree in journalism or a media-related field from an accredited institution of higher education conferred by the date of initial appointment - At least two years of professional, research, or relevant experience in digital journalism, digital and social media advertising, and public relations - Evidence of, or a demonstrated potential for, an active research agenda and/or scholarly/creative activity related to social media, digital media, or related areas of media and communication - A demonstrated ability to develop and deliver course content related to social and digital media in face-to-face and/or online environments Preferred Qualifications: - At least five years professional journalistic experience in digital and social journalism, digital and social media strategies for news and/or strategic media, social media influencing - Significant experience in the fast-changing world of social media and related digital media - Experience with online teaching and educational technology, including in writing Open Education Resource texts to be used across course sections by other faculty - A strong record of successful publication and external funding in the thematic and/or methodological areas of the position focus Benefits: - university contributions to health, dental, life and disability insurance - tuition waivers for employees and their families - 12 official holidays - immediate leave accrual - choice of retirement programs with university contributions ranging from 5 to 10% of employee salary Also "Benefits Eligible Yes" but that's redundant. We should not include Pay section. We should not include Schedule section unless we have specific schedule info. We have "standard nine-month faculty appointment" and "2-2 teaching load". Could be considered schedule but it's more about duties. I'd avoid schedule. Now we need to output HTML fragment. Structure:

  About the role

  ... (institution + department + position overview)

  Responsibilities

  • ... list items
  ...

  Qualifications

  Maybe split into Minimum and Preferred as subheadings? But rule says use

  for section headings. Could have

  Minimum Qualifications

  and

  Preferred Qualifications

  as subheadings under Qualifications? But they'd be headings too. The instruction: use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid using

  for subheadings; but we could just have one Qualifications section with lists. However we need to preserve both minimum and preferred. Could do

  Qualifications

  then

  Minimum Qualifications:

  ... then

  Preferred Qualifications:

  ... That seems fine.

  Benefits

  ...
  We must not include any boilerplate like login instructions, EEO, etc. Check for duplicated lines: we need to ensure we don't repeat same sentence. Now craft content. About the role paragraph: combine institution overview, department overview, position details. Let's write:
