Only a short time after hiring a director for our music program and choir, UUCS is on the hunt again. Dr. Robert Whalen has left to assume a full-time position at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York State.

The Music Director’s primary role is to provide inspiring, diverse, multi-cultural and theme-enhancing choral and instrumental music for the Sunday worship experience. They are charged with nurturing the presence of music throughout all areas of congregational life, including directing our very talented adult choir.

Our Committee on Human Resources (CHR) is spearheading the recruitment effort. It has posted the announcement on Craig’s List and with the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA). The notice will also appear on our Facebook page. We are exploring other ways to find candidates for the position. If you have any ideas, either for recruiting candidates or you know of someone interested in the position email the Committee on Human Resources at chr@uusalem.org. Anyone interested in learning more about the position can read the job description.
