>MIT OpenCourseWare is looking to fill 1-2 openings for Department 
>Liaisons.  This is a year-long position (with possibility of 
>extension), and we are particularly interested in hiring graduating 
>MIT students and recent alums.
>
>As a Department Liaison, you'll generally have a set of 3-4 
>departments to manage.  Within these departments, you'll recruit 
>courses for OCW publication, evaluate materials in terms of 
>copyright and adapt them for publication under our Creative Commons 
>license, draft and review OCW sites, and work with faculty 
>throughout the process.  Video is an increasingly important part of 
>our overall publication, so you'll also be involved in arranging for 
>courses to be captured, and preparing instructions for editing.
>
>This job would be a good fit for someone who is interested in a lot 
>of different fields (you'll probably be working both in departments 
>you know well and departments you don't have much background in), 
>enjoys interacting with people, and is organized and good with 
>details (many courses involve tracking a bunch of small, moving 
>parts, and careful intellectual property work).
>
>If you're interested, please submit an application through the MIT 
>jobs site (mit-00008634).
