Registration for NEH Summer Stipends Writing Clinic closes June 28

Submitted by Mary Lou Marino

The Office of Research Development will again offer a monthlong writing clinic that will use an iterative process to help interested faculty members develop and refine their submissions for the National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Stipends program.

This clinic is based on the approach the office has successfully offered for the National Science Foundation CAREER opportunity and has used for the last five years for the NEH Summer Stipends program.

The writing clinic steps will be as follows:

1. Prewriting Questions — submit by July 8; group meeting week of July 8.
2. Significance and contribution section as well as the organization and methods section — based on answers to prewriting questions — submit by July 15; group meeting week of July 15. 
3. Competencies, skills and access; final product and dissemination sections as well as the work plan, one page, and bibliography — submit by July 22; group meeting week of July 22. 
4. Full three-page narrative section, one-page work plan and resume — submit by July 29; group meeting week of July 29.

We will meet once a week via Zoom to review and discuss the writing assignments. Participants agree to take part in all sessions and complete the assignments of the clinic.

If you are interested in participating in this writing clinic please send an email stating your interest to ord@k-state.edu by June 28. Please use "Summer Stipends" as the email subject line.
