The University of Baltimore invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position, beginning during the 2005 academic year, to direct and teach in the Tax Law Clinic (TLC). The TLC represents low-income taxpayers in disputes with the IRS regarding federal income tax liability before the IRS and U.S. Tax Court. Student attorneys counsel clients and evaluate cases involving entitlement to dependency exemptions and tax credits and the availability of remedies such as offers in compromise, installment agreements, and innocent spouse relief. Faculty teaching in the University of Baltimore’s clinics are integrated fully into the law school faculty. As a result, applicants should possess experience and interest in tax law, including tax controversy work, a commitment to legal education and scholarship, as well as a willingness to teach a non-clinical course. Applications consisting of a vitae and cover letter should be sent to Professor Michael Higginbotham, Chair, Faculty Appointments Committee, The University of Baltimore School of Law, 1420 North Charles Street, Baltimore, MD 21201.
