Call for 2011 Selma Jeanne Cohen Fund Proposals

The Fulbright Association seeks applications to present the 2011 lecture under the Selma Jeanne Cohen Fund for International Scholarship on Dance. Guidelines and application information are available here. Applications must be received by Oct. 14, 2011. The Selma Jeanne Cohen Fund enables a dance scholar to present a major paper on previously unpublished research at the Fulbright Association’s annual conference. The 2011 lecture will be delivered on Nov. 4 in Washington, D.C., as part of the Association's 34th Annual Conference, “Living in a Diverse, Crowded World”. The recipient of the Selma Jeanne Cohen Fund award will receive round-trip travel and associated expenses. The 2011 lecturer will be chosen according to guidelines that were developed with the late Dr. Selma Jeanne Cohen, dance historian and founding editor of the International Encyclopedia of Dance, whose generous endowment gift supports the lecture program. The competition is open to all dance scholars. For information on past Selma Jeanne Cohen Fund lecturers, please visit here.
