Proposals selected for funding will receive up to $15,000.
Eligibility: Full-time CU tenured faculty, tenure track faculty, or full-time CU instructional and clinical teaching faculty with 20% or greater differential workload for scholarly work. There are no disciplinary restrictions on applicants so long as the work fits solidly within an artistic/humanistic framework.
