  Job Title:

  Project Coordinator, Salmon P. Chase Center for Civics, Culture, and Society

  Department:

  Academic Affairs Administration | Salmon P. Chase Center for Civics, Culture, and Society

  The Ohio State University’s motto, “disciplina in civitatem” or “education for citizenship,” is not merely a slogan; it’s an exhortation to remain focused on the responsibility to develop an informed, engaged, and civic-minded citizenry. It is essential to fulfilling Ohio State’s land-grant mission.

  In 2023, the State of Ohio established and funded the Salmon P. Chase Center for Civics, Culture, and Society at the University. The Center will grow over time under the leadership of its inaugural Executive Director, who will define the Center’s vision, appoint at least fifteen tenure-track scholars to realize that vision, and oversee the development of curriculum in accordance with the Center’s statutory mission to “conduct teaching and research in the historical ideas, traditions, and texts that have shaped the American constitutional order and society.” ORC § 3335.39.

  The Chase Center is a multidisciplinary university center that will conduct teaching, research, and public programming concerning the core texts and great debates of Western civilization; the principles, ideals, and institutions of the American and Ohio political order; and the foundations of responsible leadership and informed citizenship. The Center is an independent academic unit within the University and is initially physically located in the Glenn College of Public Affairs in Page Hall. The Center is one of a growing cadre of similar centers of civic thought and leadership in Ohio and throughout the country.

  Project Coordinator Position

  The Salmon P. Chase Center for Civics, Culture, and Society is conducting a search for the Center’s project coordinator, a person who will work closely with the Center’s administrative team to build the Center into the flourishing academic community envisioned in ORC § 3335.39. The project coordinator, as with all members of the Center, should embrace the Center’s mission.

  The project coordinator will assist leadership of the Chase Center with ongoing and evolving projects. These projects will include, but not be limited to: recruiting and hiring the Center’s administrative team and faculty; securing approval of the Center’s courses and curriculum; organizing and supporting public-facing programming; crafting and overseeing a robust student program; fostering development; and nurturing the growing academic partnerships between/among the colleges, regional campuses, Office of Academic Affairs, and other internal and external partners. It is expected that in the long-term, this position will support other projects related to undergraduate and graduate education, strategic enrollment planning, and other initiatives led/supported by the Center.

  The project coordinator reports to the Center’s Executive Director. The project coordinator represents the Center at meetings, assist with the budget, prepares annual reports, convenes internal working groups, and facilitates broader discussions and activities. The ideal candidate will possess project coordination experience, exceptional communication and organizational skills, and the ability to interact effectively with internal and external constituents.
