Dear Fellows, please consider submitting your work produced in 2020 and 2021 for one of the annual awards from the Working-Class Studies Association. Though you may not explicitly locate your work within “working-class studies,” those of you working on CUNY communities, precarity, race/class/gender intersections, and many other topics likely have significant overlap with this growing field. Awards are given out for different types of academic and creative writing, including books, scholarly articles, and media/journalism. Submissions are due by February 1, 2021. Full details here:
The Call For Proposals is now available for the 2021-2022 Faculty Fellowship Publication Program (FFPP), sponsored by the Office of the Dean for Recruitment and Diversity.
Full-time, untenured CUNY faculty are eligible to submit proposals. Previous FFPP fellows are the best spokespeople for the wonders of this program. Please share FFPP details with your colleagues and encourage them to apply. More information about the program, including the CFP, application instructions, and important meetings dates, can be found HERE.
The 2021-22 application deadline is Friday, October 29. Fellows will be notified by November 19.
Dear FFPP Fellows,
A snowy beginning to the spring 2021 semester brings two new videos, plus another opportunity for working with the Transformative Learning in the Humanities initiative.
In the latest installment of our “Mentor Writing Stories” series, Ted Ingram reflects on ways to be intentional about our collaborative writing and editing projects.
See all of our Mentor Writing Stories on our updated Virtual Orientation page.
Ken Wissoker’s latest talk to the CUNY community, “From Dissertation to First Book: A Practical and Conceptual Guide,” is now available. Ken is Senior Executive Editor of Duke University Press and director of Intellectual Publics at the Graduate Center, CUNY, as well as a longtime friend of FFPP. Thank you to Ken and Chelsea Largent for their good work for CUNY.
Finally, applications are now open for the Transformative Learning in the Humanities 2021-22 Faculty Seminar.
