[United States] Rackham Fellowship for the School of Criticism and Theory at Cornell University
The Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies is pleased to announce a grant opportunity for graduate students wishing to attend the summer session of the School of Criticism and Theory (SCT) at Cornell University. Rackham will sponsor the participation of up to two outstanding candidates for the Ph.D. in any field of the Humanities and related Social Sciences.
The Program
Since 1976, the School of Criticism and Theory has provided a forum where top theorists and critics from around the world share their vision and knowledge with participants. Intellectual exchange-the give and take or rigorous questions in seminars and at lectures-is what the school fosters. The summer session consists of a six-week term, from mid-June to late July, where professors, postdoctoral students, and doctoral candidates participate together in seminars and colloquia. Students enrolled through this program receive preferred admission to the seminars of their choice.

The award will cover SCT tuition along with a $5000 grant for travel, accommodations and expenses for the 2006 session.
