WBR job openings:  Web master/mistress. PLEASE NOTE: STUDENTS WHO HAVE  ALREADY APPLIED FOR WEB MASTER/MISTRESS PLEASE RE-SEND YOUR RESUME, AS THERE'S BEEN AN EMAIL MIX UP (sorry).  Preferred skills: Ability and willingness to learn new technologies on the job. Experience with website design and management and relevant skills (mainly HTML, CSS, Javascript, and Photoshop or similar software).Experience with Drupal (a huge plus) or similar content management systems. Responsibilities: Design and maintain the website. Upload and proofread content. Help create graphics to accompany articles and for marketing. Collaborate heavily with the staff with ideas to improve.The main requirement is the ability to pick up new technical skills quickly – we can teach you the basics, but you will need to develop and troubleshoot independently. 

 

We do want to stick with Drupal as our content management framework, but we'd be okay giving someone  this position as long as they are willing to learn. This is a great way to build real world skills and have a solid product to show for it.

Science Reader:  interested in either writing or editing science-based articles for the general reader? If so, we'd like to talk to you.

Illustrators/photographers:  we need people who can illustrate content of the journal; we are also interested in looking at portfolios of all kinds of art work, including digital, photographic, video and mixed-media.
