TO PARTICIPATE
ALL FACULTY ARE INVITED TO APPLY TO PARTICIPATE IN THE FIRST SPRING 2008 SEMINAR: "Migration and Diaspora: Cultural Theory and Representation" led by Susan Stanford Friedman

Designed to draw in faculty from the humanities, seminar participants are selected from a pool of applicants and up to 10 will receive a $500 stipend for research expenses. Preference to faculty in the humanities will be given, but faculty outside the humanities are   eligible. Seminars meet for about 10 sessions per semester and are led by 1-2 faculty members.

TO APPLY

Application Process: Please email Susan Stanford Friedman at ssfriedm@wisc.edu to characterize your interest in participating; please attach a CV. Application by November 19, 2007, will ensure full consideration for a stipend, but additional inquiries may be submitted up to the end of the fall 2007 semester.

The Seminar will enable an individual senior faculty member or a team of two senior faculty to teach fellow faculty for ten weeks (a weekly two hour seminar) on a topic of interest across the Humanities. The presiding faculty member(s) will receive course credit and her/his Department will receive funds for a replacement lecturer. The ten faculty members taking the course will receive research funds to recognize their selection and to cover the costs of materials. The presiding senior faculty member(s) as well as the participating faculty members will be chosen by a selection committee.
