UC DAVIS: HUMANITIES INSTITUTE 12/4/02 TO: MEMBERS OF THE ACADEMIC SENATE RE: CALL FOR APPLICATIONS FOR 2003-2004 FELLOWSHIPS Applications are now open for the 2003-2004 Fellowships at the Davis Humanities Institute. Established in 1987, the Institute provides residential Fellowships for Davis faculty members engaged in research projects that have a humanistic focus. Six one-quarter Fellowships for individual research will be available during 2003-2004 to Davis faculty members. The 2003-2004 theme will be "Tolerance and Intolerance." We are seeking a wide range of scholars with interest in all aspects of this topic, and the Institute is particularly interested in scholars willing and able to broaden the historical, geographical and cultural parameters of the discussion. All fellows are required to participate in a ongoing seminar and to present their work in progress as it relates to the theme. Funds will be available to invite visiting speakers. Campus Fellows will be relieved of teaching responsibilities during one quarter of their residence. Fellows should, however, expect to participate in the seminar throughout the entire academic year. The University will continue to pay full salary and benefits during the residence period. Any member of the Davis Division of the Academic Senate is eligible to apply. The Institute will normally award a Fellowship to a Senate member no more than once in any five-year period. The application deadline is January 24, 2003. Applications will be reviewed by the Humanities Institute Advisory Board, and the Director will announce the awards on or around January 31, 2003. Please send: 1) a brief curriculum vitae; 2) a short description of your project (about 1000 words); 3) a statement of the academic quarter of residence desired; and 4) a statement of endorsement from your Department or Program Chairperson. All proposals must reach the Humanities Institute by 5:00 p.m. of the deadline date. N.B.: The tentative theme for 2004-2005 will be "Exile and Return" Georges Van Den Abbeele Director 02-162
