New fellowship program
The Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery, Resistance and Abolition has announced a new fellowship program for the academic year 2005-2006.
The center seeks to promote a better understanding of all aspects of the institution of slavery from the earliest times to the present. It coordinates annual international and interdisciplinary conferences, lectures, educational outreach, publications and other activities to bring together scholars and students from across the spectrum of slavery studies.

The fellowships will provide access to the research facilities of the University, to a broad range of related regional research collections and to the Gilder Lehrman Collection in New York City.
