Req ID: 43673
Faculty/Division: Faculty of Arts & Science
Department: New College Prog
Campus: St. George (Downtown Toronto)
Description:
New College seeks a sessional lecturer from September 1, 2025 – April 30, 2026 to teach BOTH of the following integrated courses:
NEW102H1F – Exploring Multilingual Toronto (Fall Term)
How does language connect and divide people, places and communities? This course considers how interactions between people in Toronto are shaped by language as well as history, economy, architecture and urban landscapes. Students engage with the city both in and out of class to think about a range of questions linked to gender and sexuality, indigeneity, migration, race, ethnicity, and public/private space.
NEW112H1S – Language Freedom and Power (Winter Term)
How do we imagine a balance between the need for communication, freedom of expression, and protection for marginalized groups? This course considers how language shapes and is shaped by the relations of power not only in such sites as colonies, nations and institutions, but also in popular culture and how we communicate online. It explores the key role of language in activism and youth cultures and allows students to focus on an issue of particular interest.
Enrolment Estimate: 25 students (in each of the Fall and Winter terms)
Estimated TA Support: N/A
Class Schedule: Lecture: Thursdays 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Salary:
Sessional Lecturer I: $19,641.40

Sessional Lecturer II: $21,020.07
Sessional Lecturer II (Long-term): $21,520.55
Sessional Lecturer III: $21,520.55
Sessional Lecturer III (Long-term): $22,060.71
Note: Salary is for the period September 1, 2025 – April 30, 2026 and covers both courses. These courses will be delivered in an in-person format. However, please note that, in keeping with current circumstances, the course delivery may change as determined by the Faculty or the Department.
NEW102H1F & NEW112H1S are two of ten small interdisciplinary seminars comprising the first-year foundational program, New One: Learning without Borders. The courses reflect the program’s defining theme, “learning without borders,” by exploring a locally relevant issue through a transnational lens, building students’ capacities as critically reflective learners, emphasizing creative pedagogy and interdisciplinarity, engaging the perspectives of community members and senior students; and fostering student development overall. NEW102H1F grounds its study and writing about language through an exploration of the connections between language and place while NEW112H1S focuses more on the study of multilingualism worldwide and in virtual space. New One courses meet for 3 hours each week. A portion of those sessions will occasionally be allocated to “Learning Labs.” All students in the program come together in these Learning Labs to engage in joint activities and explore issues that are common to the four topics. Both in seminars and Learning Labs, students will experience a variety of ways of learning (through, for example, guest lectures, group work, workshops, field trips to local community organizations, and panels of senior students sharing their experience and insights).
The salary will be the minimum rates in the collective agreement (as noted above) plus an additional 6% stipend to account for the following duties: Over the course of this appointment, the Sessional Lecturer will be required to attend approximately 20 hours of meetings with the New One Coordinator and Instructors to coordinate assignments, plan plenary sessions and evaluate the program. Meetings will commence in July or August 2025 (depending on instructors’ availability).
Please note that should rates stipulated in the collective agreement vary from rates stated in this posting, the rates stated in the collective agreement shall prevail.
