Ellis evaluates NEH grant applications

Clyde Ellis, associate professor of history, was in Washington, D.C. on Friday, Dec. 10 to evaluate grant applications for a National Endowment for the Humanities initiative.

Called “Grants for Teaching and Learning Resources and Curriculum Development,” the initiative aims to improve select areas of humanities education. The grants, according to the NEH Web site, “support projects to improve specific areas of humanities education and are intended to serve as national models of excellence. They must draw upon scholarship in the humanities and use scholars and teachers as advisers.”
