FW: Resumes Requested: McGuire Center for Lepidoptera Research

[Ruth Allard]

Hello all,

The McGuire Center for Lepidoptera Research is gearing up for its 
February 2004 opening.  Accordingly, they've sent out a request for 
applications for several positions that will be available soon.  My 
understanding is that these proposals need to go through an evaluation 
process that is being coordinated by reviewer Zane Greathouse.  I'm not 
familiar with this process of managing applications, so apologies if 
I've misinterpreted the details here.
 
What I know for certain is that the McGuire Center staff are tremendous 
and the facility plans took my breath away.  The museum collections, 
activities and exhibit will be great resources for the butterfly 
conservation community.  Getting in on the ground floor would be a great 
opportunity for anyone committed to butterfly biology, research and/or 
education.
 
Read on for Zane's request - if you have any questions about this 
process, please direct them to him.

I am responding to the RFP for the McGuire Center of Lepidoptera 
Research (Florida Museum of Natural History) at the University of 
Florida in Gainesville, Florida. I am looking for resumes for the 
following positions: Lepidopterist, Exhibit Manager, Entomologist, 
Horticulturist, Gardener, Operations Staff, Gift Shop Manager, Gift Shop 
Designer/Stylist, Gift Shop Buyer, and Web Site Designer/Webmaster. Some 
positions will be filled in the next two months, others are to be filled 
when the facility opens (slated for Feb. 2004). Six copies of each 
resume will be required, four of which are to be included with the 
proposal that I will be submitting on Aug. 28, 2003. Resumes should be 
in my hands on or before August 22, 2003. The sooner the better. Please 
feel free to forward this notice to any interested parties. Inquiries
