Dean's Summer Scholarship Grant

Summer 2008


Purpose

Augsburg values faculty research and creative projects and thus is making available this opportunity to support faculty work. The purpose of the Dean’s Summer Scholarship Grant is to support well-defined faculty scholarship projects that are nearing completion. The expectation is that receipt of the grant will make it possible for a faculty member to accelerate completion of a significant project by providing this substantial opportunity.

Description and Eligibility

Two $4,000 Dean’s Summer Scholarship Grants will be awarded for summer 2008. One grant will be awarded to a faculty member who received tenure prior to the 2007-2008 academic year. One grant will be awarded to a tenure-track faculty member who successfully passed Third-Year Review prior to the 2007-2008 academic year.

Faculty members who receive a Dean’s Summer Scholarship Grant are not eligible to teach more than one course total in Summer Session.

Application Process

Please submit a one-to-two-page description of the project, including a summary of work already accomplished and a clear timetable and plan for completion. Explain how receipt of the Dean’s Summer Scholarship Grant will accelerate project completion. You are asked to attach a curriculum vitae and any directly relevant supporting materials. This information will help the Faculty Development Committee know the applicant and review the history of scholarly activity. Grant recipients submit a progress report in fall 2008 and a short final report by Feb. 1, 2009.

Submit applications as e-mail attachments no later than 5 p.m. on March 14, 2008 to martin@augsburg.edu. Applications are evaluated by the Faculty Development Committee, recommendations are forwarded to the Dean, and the awards are announced in early April.

Fulbright Applications -- The Process Begins Now

Though next year's Fulbright applications are not due until October, if you are interested in applying, you should begin thinking about your application NOW!

Fulbright grants are made to students and other citizens for a variety of educational activities, primarily university lecturing, advanced research, graduate study and teaching in elementary and secondary schools. The Fulbright Scholar Program sends hundreds of grantees abroad each year to lecture and conduct research in a wide variety of academic and professional fields. Through the program, you can be a teaching assistant, conduct overseas research, or many other enriching possibilities.

There is a great deal of thought and work that goes into these applications, so you should begin looking into the application process now. For more information, you can visit the Fulbright web site at: http://www.cies.org/us_scholars/.

Or you can visit Augsburg's scholarship information page at: http://www.augsburg.edu/urgo/scholarship.html and click the Fulbright link.

Spring Elections for Day Student Government

Greetings Day Students,

Spring elections for Day student government are Sunday, March 9 through Wednesday, March 12.

A petition was submitted to Day Student Government to place on the Spring Elections ballot a referendum for wind energy. Day Senate voted to approve the referendum. Day Senate asks the Day students to vote on the referendum that reads:

“The Day Student Body imposes a non-refundable permanent fee of $14.75 per semester to purchase wind energy.”

If the referendum passes, the fee will appear on your tuition as a separate fee, similar to the newspaper readership fee. If the referendum does not pass, no fee will be assessed.

Elect your representatives for the 2008-2009 academic year and vote on the Wind Energy Referendum by clicking the elections icon on Inside Augsburg.


For any questions, e-mail Ricky Oudekerk, Day Student Body President, at: oudekerk@augsburg.edu

Sincerely,
Day Student Government
