ANNOUNCING: Summer 2002
National Endowment for the Humanities (U.S.A.)
Seminars and Institutes for School Teachers

Application Deadline: March 1, 2002
* * *
Each summer the National Endowment for the Humanities supports a variety of
study opportunities in the humanities for school teachers.  Seminars and
institutes are national (open to those who teach American K-12 students),
residential, and rigorous.  Designed to strengthen the quality of the
humanities instruction available to American students, they are led by some
of the nation's outstanding scholars and take place at major colleges and
universities and archival facilities across the country and abroad.

Topics considered among the 28 seminars and institutes for school teachers
offered during the summer of the year 2002 include Vietnam, the Arab world,
Classical philosophy and culture, Shakespeare, and a wide range of topics in
American history and literature.  For a complete list of both seminars and
institutes, go to the NEH Website, or phone (202/606-8463), or e-mail
(sem-inst@neh.gov).

http://www.neh.gov/projects/si-school.html

The listings contain seminar and institute titles and the means to contact
each director.  Prospective applicants can request information from as many
seminar and institute directors as they wish but may apply to only one NEH
summer offering.  In response to a request for information, seminar and
institute directors will send a letter describing the content, logistics,
expectations, and conditions of that project.  Each letter will be
accompanied by application instructions as well as information about the
program's costs.  Participants receive from the National Endowment for the
Humanities a stipend based on the length of the seminar or institute.  Year
2002 stipends are $2,800 for four weeks, $3,250 for five weeks, and $3,700
for six weeks and are intended to help cover travel costs and living
expenses, as well as books and miscellaneous expenses.

Requests for information and completed applications should NOT be directed
to the National Endowment for the Humanities; they should be addressed to
the individual projects as found in the listings.  The application deadline
is March 1.
