Professor Alan Jenkins is seeking a Research Assistant to support course development, research, and scholarship at the intersection of law, communication and culture.

Expected assignments will include assistance in identifying new course readings, preparing research memoranda, and developing materials for publication.  Strong research and analytical skills are required, as are solid written and oral communication abilities.

Students with past coursework or experience in civil rights law, social science research, and/or narrative storytelling will be preferred.  Students enrolled (or who plan to enroll) in any of Professor Jenkins’s Fall 2023 courses are not eligible for this RA position.

Interested students should submit their resume, transcript (informal is fine), and a statement of interest—including the amount of time that they are available—to Susan J. Smith (ssmith@law.harvard.edu).
