Graduate Scholar-in-Residence

Dear colleagues,

We are starting a new Graduate Scholar-in-Residence program at the Newberry to encourage PhD candidates in the humanities to conduct research in our collections and become a part of our community of scholars. We invite graduate students who have advanced to PhD candidacy to apply for this status. Preference will be given to candidates whose dissertation projects are well advanced. The students who are selected will be provided with a research carrel, access to the Newberry during extended hours, and opportunities to present their work-in-progress to the Newberry's scholarly community.

Would you kindly pass the attached application information along to doctoral candidates who you think might be interested?

Sincerely,
Diane Dillon
