Applications
are now welcome for the
S. George Ellsworth Editorial Fellowship
For
2009-2010, a total stipend of $14,000, an out-of-state tuition waiver,
and summer research funds will be awarded.
The
S. George Ellsworth Fellow must enroll in USU's master's program
in history. Duties at the Western Historical Quarterly
(WHQ) include 20 hours a week, beginning in August, helping
to select, prepare, and copyread manuscripts. The fellowship may
be retained for a second year, depending upon satisfactory progress
toward the master's degree and acceptable completion of editorial
assignments. During the summer of 2010, the editorial fellow will
work 20 hours a week at the WHQ, with time off for research.
Applicants
should send a letter of interest and a writing sample directly to
the editor of the WHQ. The full application, including
three letters of recommendation to the USU School of Graduate Studies,
will suffice to complete the needed materials. All documents should
be postmarked no later than 1 February 2009. Applicants will be
notified in early April.
