The first year of exchange will be the academic year of 1983-84. A large lead time
is required to match faculty members and institutions. Those faculty members interested in the program for 1983-84 should see their Dean for application forms to be
completed by September 15, 1982. The local campus coordinator will be the Provost.
However, until this office is filled, consultation should be held with School Deans
who will have the appropriate information and application forms.

The Rockefeller Foundation announces a program of awards for 1983-84 to support
humanistic scholarship intended to illuminate and assess contemporary social and
cultural issues. The program welcomes applications from writers and scholars in the
traditional humanistic disciplines (such as literature, history and philosophy) whose
projects contribute to the analysis and evaluation of contemporary issues or values.
Similar proposals in fields not usually defined as humanistic (such as political
science, law and anthropology) are encouraged if their humanistic implications are
clear and substantial.
First-stage proposals must be received by October 1, 1982; second-stage proposals,
if requested, by January 7, 1983. Awards will be announced in March 1983.
Procedures for application and additional information is available in the Office of
the Provost.
