The Simpson Center is piloting two new summer programs in the humanities and humanistic social sciences for 2021, with a deadline of March 15. First Book Fellowships aim to support assistant professors in the humanities and humanistic social sciences whose appointment carries with it the expectation of a book for tenure and who are in the final stages of completing their first book manuscript. Faculty Summer Reading Group grants support cross-departmental reading groups for tenure-track faculty and teaching faculty. Please direct any questions to Rachel Arteaga, Simpson Center Assistant Director, at rarteaga@uw.edu.
