Fellowship available for 1995 Salzburg Seminar

     In recognition of the support received from the University of
Delaware for the past several years, the president of the Salzburg
Seminar in Austria has extended a Presidential Fellowship for tuition
for a member of the UD faculty to attend a seminar in 1995, according
to G. Arno Loessner, chairperson of the Salzburg Seminar selection
committee at the University.
     The University also will assist with travel and related expenses.
     Loessner, a policy fellow of the College of Urban Affairs and
Public Policy, first attended the Salzburg Seminar in 1977, and since
then, more than 20 faculty members have been fellows, using the
experience to enrich and internationalize their teaching.
     Established in 1947, the Salzburg Seminar studies, at the highest
level, contemporary issues of worldwide scope, as well as significant
aspects of American society.
     Interested faculty members may submit a proposal, not to exceed
two pages, explaining how the seminar would enhance their work at the
University.
     Each proposal for sessions from March-December should be
accompanied by a memo from the department chairperson or dean and
addressed to Loessner at Graham Hall. The deadline is 4:30 p.m.,
Wednesday, Feb. 8.
     A Salzburg Seminar brochure, outlining the different
sessions-which range from "The Globalization of American Popular
Culture" to "Involuntary Migration"-and a listing of former fellows
from the University are in the Reserve Room of the Morris Library.
