Martha Reed Coles Arts and Humanities Fellowships
The Martha Reed Coles fund supports fellowships for students doing research under the guidance of a faculty/staff member. Coles Fellowships in the Arts and Humanities are intended to support substantial participation in an arts or humanities research project by a student under the direction of a faculty member who is independently interested in the area under study. While the nature of the project will differ from discipline to discipline, all should give the students firsthand experience with productive scholarly research.
The stipend is $3,200 for part-time research during the academic year and $400/week for full-time research in eight weeks of the summer. In addition, a subsidy for College housing during the summer will be provided. Requests of up to $500 to cover the cost of expenses for materials for the project (e.g., laboratory supplies, analytical costs, and travel beyond the local area to do field work) will be considered as part of the award. Such requests are limited to covering expenses that would otherwise be imposed on the College.
