    STIPENDS
                                 Deadline: October 1, 2001 for awards during the
    summer of 2002

    The National Endowment for the Humanities announces the competition for
    Summer Stipends awards. These awards support two consecutive months of
    full-time work on projects that will make a significant contribution to the
    humanities. In most cases, faculty members of colleges and universities in
    the United States must be nominated by their institutions for the Summer
    Stipends competition, and each of these institutions may nominate two
    applicants. Prospective applicants who will require nomination should
    acquaint themselves with the nomination procedures of their home
    institutions well before the October 1 application deadline.

       Individuals employed in non-teaching capacities in colleges and
    universities and individuals not affiliated with colleges and universities
    do not require nomination and may apply directly to the program. Adjunct
    faculty and academic applicants with appointments terminating by the summer
    of 2002 also may apply without nomination.

    TENURE: Tenure must cover two full and uninterrupted months and will
    normally be held between May 1, 2002, and September 30, 2002. STIPEND:
    $5,000

    PURPOSE AND SCOPE: The Summer Stipends program provides opportunities for
    individuals to pursue advanced work in disciplines of the humanities during
    the summer. Projects proposed for support may contribute to scholarly
    knowledge or to the general public's understanding of the humanities, and
    they may address broad topics or consist of research and study in a single
    field.

    ELIGIBILITY: Applicants need not have advanced degrees, but neither
    candidates for degrees nor persons seeking support for work toward a degree
    are eligible to apply for NEH Summer Stipends.
    Applicants should be U.S. citizens, native residents of U.S. jurisdictions,
    or foreign nationals who have been legal residents in the U.S. or its
    jurisdictions for at least the three years immediately preceding the
    application deadline.

    SELECTION PROCEDURES: Reviewers consider the significance of the proposed
    project to the humanities, the quality of the applicant's work, the
    conception and description of the project, and the likelihood that the
    proposed work will be accomplished.
