Fellowships for outstanding teachers

The Council For Basic Education is once again offering fellowships of $3,000 to outstanding teachers of the humanities in grades 9 through 12 for independent study during the summer of 1984.

The fellowships are funded by an $800,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

In order to be eligible for the fellowship, teachers must: have a master's degree or its equivalent; have taught full time in grades 9 to 12 for at least five years; teach at least three-fifths of a full schedule in English, foreign languages, history, or another humanities discipline; have at least five years of service remaining before retirement; and have a worthy plan of summer study.

Applications may be obtained by writing: Independent Study in the Humanities, PO Box 2915, Princeton, N.J. 08541. The deadline for filing applications is Dec. 19, 1983.
