Tim,
Greetings from Evanston! I hope all is going well for you in your work with ISAAC. I am writing on behalf of the faculty search committee for a position here at Garrett in Systematic Theology. As you can see from the attached description we are very interested in identifying mid to senior level candidates for consideration. The successful candidate for this position would be working very closely with Nancy Bedford and myself as well as with Brent Waters and Ken Vaux. The person would be working with our Master’s level students and with our doctoral program. We would be most interested in someone who saw her work as contributing to making each of these programs world class. We are especially interested in identifying candidates who are of Asian/Asian-American descent and who are conversant in both the scholarship and ecclesial realities that emerge from these communities. We would deeply appreciate your help in this task. I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Professor Tseng,
Greetings from Saint Olaf College. I am writing to you in my capacity as Chair of our Religion Department and Chair of our Search Committee for a new tenure track position in the historical or social scientific study of Christianity, with a preferred focus on African, African-American, Asian, or Latino/a-American Christianity. I am attaching a full description of our position for your information. We want to attract a large and diverse pool of candidates for this position, and especially candidates who can contribute to the diversity of our community through their teaching, research, and/or service.
It will be a tremendous help to us if you are able to share our position description with members of your group and any other interested persons. Kindly let me know of your willingness to assist us in this way.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
