| Maurice Hamington | I wish to write a book, sympathetic Knowledge: the Ethics and Politics of Jane Adams. For some time now, I have been conducting research of the philosophy of Jane Adams...I believe that my project has an excellent chance of getting published. The proposed sabbatical will contribute to my professional growth as both a philosopher, as a women's studies scholar, and as learning communities coordinator. Adams was an early feminist. She fought for women's suffrage, created support structures for women laborers, and helped launch the women's peace movement. | W or Sp |
| Sarah Ulerick | I want to revitalize my scholarly life by learning about cutting edge research in tectonics and synthesizing the history of theories of mountain building. I want to rekindle my connection to the Earth by experiencing geology in the field and seeing, firsthand, some of the most ancient and historically significant rocks in the world. Tectonics have changed our interpretations of many mountain ranges, including the Appalachians and their "companion" range in western Europe and East Greenland, the Caledonides. | Sp |
