The Bill and Carol Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry
Emory University

The Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry at Emory University is accepting  
applications for three Junior and Post-Doctoral fellowships for an  
academic of study, teaching, and residence in the Center. The FCHI  
Fellows Program offers research opportunities to those trained in the  
humanities as traditionally defined and to others seriously interested  
in humanistic issues; research projects must be humanistic, but  
fellows may hold the Ph.D. in any discipline. We especially seek  
applicants and projects that will benefit from and contribute to the  
interdisciplinary nature of the group of Fellows and the work of the  
FCHI.

Junior Fellows are scholars who, at the beginning of the fellowship  
year, will be at least three years beyond receipt of the Ph.D., and  
normally no more than ten (i.e., who received their Ph.D.s before Fall  
2005). Post-Doctoral Fellows, who must have the Ph.D. in hand before  
submission of their applications, are awarded to those who have held  
the Ph.D. for no more than three years before application for the  
fellowships (the Ph.D. awarded between Fall 2005 and Fall 2007).

Besides being an active member of the Center’s intellectual agenda  
through the academic year, Fellows will be expected to offer an upper- 
level interdisciplinary undergraduate seminar on a subject of their  
choice during the spring of the fellowship year. Stipends of $40,000  
will be offered to Junior and Post-Doctoral Fellows, along with a  
research budget of $2,000, shared office space in the Center, and  
library access. The deadline for submission of completed applications  
is February 28, 2008; awards will be announced in mid-April 2008.  
Application forms and further information are available from the Fox  
Center for Humanistic Inquiry at 404-727-6424 or chi at emory.edu, on the  
web at www.chi.emory.edu, or write to: FCHI, Emory University, 1715

thought, produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
