43. Columbia College Chicago/Center for Black Music Research - Rockefeller Fellowships

Under the auspices of the Rockefeller Foundation, the Center for Black Music Research (CBMR) of Columbia College Chicago is offering resident fellowships during the 2000-2001 academic year. For the 2000-2001 year of fellowship study, the project will accept applications to pursue work on issues of international scholarship and practice in any aspect of the black expressive arts. Applications will be considered from scholars in various fields of the black expressive arts, including music, literature, history, theater, visual arts, and dance; from scholars in African-American, Latin-American, and Caribbean studies; and from the general fields of philosophy, sociology, criticism, folklore, and American cultural studies.

The fellows will be in residence full-time at Columbia College Chicago during the period of their appointment and will present works-in-progress at colloquia and seminars. With their primary focus on their own research and writing, the fellows also will have opportunities to interact with Columbia College faculty and students and with members of the Chicago arts, cultural, and educational communities. Two fellowships will be offered. One fellow will be in residence for ten months and will receive a $35,000 stipend. A second fellow will be in residence for six months and will receive $15,000. Each will receive a moving allowance, if needed.

Candidates must have completed the Ph.D. at the time of application. The deadline for applications is FEBRUARY 1, 2000.
