We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real specific content. Let's parse the posting. We have Position Title: Quarterly Lecturer in Graphic Design (not to be repeated as heading). Position Type: Temporary. Salary Range: $9,839 for each 4 or 5 unit course. Purpose: description. We need sections: About the role (purpose), Responsibilities, Requirements (basic qualifications), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (maybe tools), Benefits (none?), Pay (salary range), Schedule (winter/spring schedule details). Also maybe "Qualifications" could combine basic and preferred? But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not create sections with filler. So we need to see if we have content for each. - About the role: we have purpose paragraph describing role, teaching assignments, etc. That's substantive. - Responsibilities: we have TEACHING (100%) list of duties. Good. - Requirements: basic qualifications (terminal degree, ABD/Master's with experience, teaching excellence, communication, proficiency). That's substantive. - Qualifications: preferred qualifications (inclusive pedagogical practices, diverse population, similar courses). That's substantive. - Skills: maybe "Demonstrated proficiency in current Graphic Design tools and technologies" could be considered skill. Also "Excellent communication skills". Could put under Skills. - Benefits: none mentioned. No benefits details. So we should not create Benefits section. - Pay: Salary Range: $9,839 for each 4 or 5 unit course. That's specific. So we can create Pay section. - Schedule: Winter schedule and Spring schedule details with times and courses. That's specific. So Schedule section. We must not repeat job title as heading. Also not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: application instructions, EEO, etc. Also remove requested application materials? That's part of posting but maybe considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "REQUESTED APPLICATION MATERIALS:" is application instructions, so we should remove that. Also contact info etc. Also remove telecommute statement? Might be considered not boilerplate but maybe not needed. However we need to preserve ALL substantive information; does telecommute statement count as substantive? It's about where work must be performed. Could be considered relevant but not in our headings. Could we include it under About the role? Might be okay to keep as a paragraph in About the role? But we should not invent sections. Could add a short paragraph about work location under About the role or maybe under Schedule? Probably better to keep it in About the role as extra detail. We must not include application instructions, so we remove REQUESTED APPLICATION MATERIALS and everything after that (including contact info, etc.) Also remove EEO Statement, Clery Notice, ADA, Work Authorization, etc. We need to preserve all substantive information: purpose, responsibilities, basic qualifications, preferred qualifications, skills (tools, communication), pay, schedule, maybe telecommute location restriction. Let's extract substantive paragraphs: Purpose: "The Department of Art and Art History at Santa Clara University, a Jesuit, Catholic university, invites applications for quarterly lecturer(s) (non-tenure track) to teach undergraduate courses in Graphic Design, including Information Design and Website Graphic Design. Specific assignments will be made according to the academic qualifications of the individual and programmatic need. The successful candidate will teach no more than two courses in any quarter and no more than four courses over the fall, winter and spring quarters. Each quarter is 10 weeks long, with an 11th week set for final examinations. All classes will be presented in-person, however, if the county health and university health conditions deteriorate, the successful candidate may be asked to teach part of the course online. The Winter schedule for this position consists of one section of ARTS 175 Information Design: Graphic Design on MW 10:30 a.m. to 12:50 p.m. The Spring schedule for this position consists of one section of ARTS 70: Graphic Design: Typography on MW 10:30 a.m. to 12: 50 p.m. and one section of ARTS 177 Website Graphic Design on MW 1:00 to 3:20 p.m." But schedule details we will put in Schedule section; we can still mention that schedule details are provided there. Responsibilities: The TEACHING (100%) list: "Teaching duties will not exceed more than two courses in any quarter and no more than four in any academic year, and will include but are not limited to fulfilling all responsibilities associated with assigned courses, including: Conducting and appearing at all assigned class meetings in a timely and prepared manner that demonstrates a command of the discipline and skill in presenting it effectively; Assigning and evaluating assignments that align with the course description and course learning outcomes, and providing timely feedback to students; Holding regular weekly office hours on campus; Submitting student grades that are appropriate, accurate and fair measures of student performance to the Office of the Registrar by the designated deadline; Administering numerical and narrative evaluations for all courses; Where applicable, teaching from an approved syllabus for the University Core courses assigned or Working with the Chair to design an appropriate syllabus for submission for approval from the relevant Faculty Core Curriculum Committee." We can turn that into a
  • list. Requirements (basic qualifications): "Terminal degree (Ph.D./MFA) in Studio Art or a closely-related field. Applicants who are ABD or possess a Master’s degree, accompanied by commensurate academic experience in Graphic Design or a closely-related field (5-7 years of college or professional teaching) will be considered. Demonstrated excellence in teaching Graphic Design at the college level. Excellent communication skills. Demonstrated proficiency in current Graphic Design tools and technologies, with the ability to teach foundational and advanced design practices." We can split: some are skills (communication, proficiency). But we can keep them under Requirements. Qualifications (preferred): "Experience with inclusive pedagogical practices that promote access and academic success for all students. Experience teaching and mentoring a diverse population of undergraduate students. Previous experience with similar courses(s)." Skills: maybe we separate communication and tools proficiency into Skills section. But we already have them in Requirements; but we could move them to Skills to avoid duplication. However we must preserve all info; duplication is okay but we should avoid unnecessary duplication? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplication is not prohibited but we should aim for few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine communication and tools under Skills, and keep Requirements focused on degrees/experience. Let's decide: - Requirements: Terminal degree (Ph.D./MFA) in Studio Art or closely-related field. ABD or Master's degree with 5-7 years of college/professional teaching experience in Graphic Design or closely-related field. - Qualifications (preferred): Inclusive pedagogical practices, experience teaching/mentoring diverse population, previous experience with similar courses. - Skills: Demonstrated excellence in teaching Graphic Design at college level, excellent communication skills, demonstrated proficiency in current Graphic Design tools and technologies, ability to teach foundational and advanced design practices. That seems reasonable. Pay: Salary Range: $9,839 for each 4 or 5 unit course. Schedule: Provide winter and spring schedule details. Also note each quarter is 10 weeks with 11th week for finals, max two courses per quarter, max four over fall/winter/spring. Also mention in-person unless health conditions deteriorate. We could include those details in Schedule section. Now we need to output HTML fragment with

    headings and appropriate

      We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like application instructions, EEO, etc. We removed those. Check for any leftover like "Position Type: Temporary" - we didn't include that. Should we include position type? It's substantive but not under any heading. Could we add a short paragraph under About the role? The About the role currently doesn't mention temporary. Could add a sentence: "This is a temporary, non‑tenure‑track
