Applications are now being accepted for A. Whitney Griswold Faculty Research Fund awards.
The fund was established to help faculty members carry out research in the humanities. The award is for the projected research of full-time faculty members on continuing appointment in any department or division of the University. Funding of up to $2,500 per academic year may be sought for purposes such as travel to inspect primary-source materials; acquisition of inaccessible books or microÞlms, which would later be transferred to a University library; or assistance with research. The award is not intended for reimbursement of expenses already incurred.
Faculty members requesting amounts over $1,000 should also apply to other sources of support. The deadline to submit applications, along with supporting materials, is Nov. 1. Complete details are available online at www.yale.edu/whc/funding.htm.

Applications are now being accepted for the Frederick W. Hilles Publication Fund.
The fund was established by the late Frederick W. Hilles to assist younger scholars in the humanities in the publication of their manuscripts. It is administered by the Council of Fellows of the Whitney Humanities Center. Preference will be given to first-time applications from associate professors, assistant professors and instructors. As funds permit, the council will consider applications from other faculty who have been members of the Yale College faculty for at least two years. No more than $5,000 will be awarded to any applicant for any one book.
The author or publisher should apply only after the manuscript has been accepted for publication by a university or scholarly press, preferably the Yale University Press. The application should include a summary of the manuscript and at least two reports, one from the publisher or editor and one from a recognized scholar, attesting to the merits of the manuscript. The manuscript must have the endorsement of a publisher, who should demonstrate that a subvention is necessary and include a breakdown of costs. A letter concerning any publication advances received from the publisher is also required.
Applications and supporting documents are due Nov. 1 and should be addressed to the Chair, Hilles Publication Fund, Whitney Humanities Center, P.O. Box 208298, New Haven, CT 06520. Materials may also be faxed to (203) 432-1087 or sent by e-mail to susan.stout@yale.edu.
