ALL ACADEMICS AND STAFF AT UCSD

SUBJECT: UCSD-sponsored HERC Launches Employment Web site:
www.socalherc.org

We are pleased to announce the launch of the employment Web site of the
Southern California Higher Education Recruitment Consortium (HERC):
www.socalherc.org. UCSD Academic Personnel Services is the founder of
the Southern California HERC, a collaborative effort among 23 Southern
California colleges and universities dedicated to recruiting and
retaining highly qualified faculty and staff.

The HERC Web site is the only comprehensive employment Web site in
Southern California where job seekers can view both academic and staff
job opportunities in higher education. The site represents a tremendous
advance for those seeking careers in a college or university setting. In
the past, job seekers needed to contact employment sites at individual
campuses to stay abreast of these employment opportunities.
Job seekers have free access to the HERC employment Web site and all of
its features, including the "My Jobs" tool that automatically sends
e-mails to potential applicants when jobs are posted that meet their
search criteria.

UCSD views HERC as a valuable recruitment and retention tool. The HERC
employment Web site will provide more visibility for UCSD as an employer
of choice and will offer job seekers the opportunity to learn about job
opportunities at UCSD and at other colleges and universities in the
region.

For more information regarding HERC, please contact either of the HERC
directors, Becky Skov, 858-534-2121, bskov@ucsd.edu and Kristie Howard,
858-822-5862, khoward@ucsd.edu. Jennefer J. Collins
