1995 Salzburg Seminar fellowship is available

     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.

1966," March 18-25; "Higher Education: Institutional Structures for
