They will receive $500 in professional development funds as well as the exclusive use of a private office (pictured) within the Center for Humanities in War Memorial Hall.

We will also consider applications from any other faculty member with a need for office space.
What are the responsibilities? Faculty fellows will deliver a short presentation in the Center’s seminar series, attend Center events as their schedules permit, and generally participate in the intellectual life of the Center.
