RE: Special Call for Proposals Within Regular Courses Related to Events of 
September 11

I am writing to request proposals to develop and deliver instruction within regularly 
scheduled courses that will address issues related to the world events of September 11. 

The occurrences of that day have implications that relate to a wide range of topics 
addressed in courses currently being taught. Culture, language, policy, economics, 
biotechnology, psychology, engineering, communication, religion and history are 
among the subjects that may help shed light on the wide range of impacts and
implications resulting from the September 11 events and aftermath.

Funds are available to bring in guest speakers, to purchase copies of relevant 
periodicals (e.g., the New Yorker or New York Times), and to acquire films, videos, 
or similar materials. Other appropriate uses of funds will also be considered.

Proposals will be reviewed and awards announced in a minimum time in order to 
allow inclusion in Fall quarter courses.  Proposals for winter and spring quarters are 
also encouraged.

A complete proposal should indicate the course and the quarter taught, the number 
of students normally enrolled, a very brief description of what is proposed, and the 
total amount of money requested.  Proposals can be submitted by e-mail to 
trc@ucdavis.edu.  

For more information, contact Aram Yengoyan, Interim Director of the Teaching 
Resources Center, at  (530) 752-6050.
