Faculty applicants needed for fellowship

The Dorothy A. Johnson Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership seeks faculty applicants for the Russell G. Mawby Fellowship in Philanthropic Studies.

The fellowship provides the opportunity for one faculty member to work with two undergraduate students on a research project addressing relevant issues related to philanthropic studies. The topic will focus on philanthropy and the American presidency.

As a result of this research, Mawby Fellows will be required to produce an original, tangible product, such as a research paper, a creative work, or a thoughtful essay.

The fellowship is expected to last one year, although in some exceptional cases it may be extended over two years. Faculty fellows will receive a $5,000 stipend (or $2,500 over two years). It is open to all faculty members, including those without tenure and those not on the tenure track.

Applications are due May 30. Visit the Web site www.gvsu.edu/jcp for application materials. Contact Sara Winchester at [email protected] or (616) 331-7589 with questions.
