Reflective Engagement in the Public Interest

This year, the Reflective Engagement Steering Committee will award up to $125,000 in grants to encourage public scholarship, or academic research that aims to contribute in some important way to some major public issue, and help build the University's capacity to undertake this kind of academic work in the future. See below for a copy of the call proposals and grant application cover sheet. To be considered, the application must be submitted via e-mail with a completed cover sheet to Professor Professor Henry Richardson by Friday, October 30, 2009. We regret that we cannot accept paper applications.
