为新的黑人研究课程提供资金
We are pleased to announce that due to the generous support of the Mellon Foundation
— for a three-year grant: Africana Studies and the Humanities at Skidmore: Transnational
Explorations in Social Justice — we are able to offer stipends of $1,000 to faculty
who successfully create courses cross-listed with the Black Studies Program (BST). Note
that in order to be compensated, you need to submit a 指南的形式 提交给BST顾问委员会. 1, 2024, as well as a proposal to Curriculum Committee
(CC) by Dec. 15, 2024. Stipends cannot be distributed for courses already counting
toward the Black studies minor; however, they could include existing courses with significant
revisions. For additional support in developing a course for BST, consider joining
one of the 种族正义学习社区 offered each semester and piloting the course for the 种族正义教学挑战赛.
For additional information, please contact the co-PIs, Professor and Director of Black
Studies Winston Grady-Willis and 美国研究教授 and CLTL Director Beck
