Subject: Title VI funding (fwd)




The University of Chicago Center for East European, Russian/Eurasian
Study CEERES is expecting to have considerable funds to hire people on a
per
course basis next year (most likely, for Winter and Spring, 2003) who are
able to teach about Islamic-related subjects in our geographical
area--Eastern Europe, the Balkans, the Caucasus, the Russian Federation,
and Central Asia. It might even be possible to extend this to Uigurs, who
are the basic population of Xinjiang.

Initially it appeared as though CEERES would have funding to hire
personnel to teach 4
"history courses" of Central Asia and 3 "history courses" of Bosnia (the
Balkans). Subsequent discussion has expanded this from "history" to
anthropology, political science, religion, and/or sociology.

A notice from the Department of Education yesterday leads me to believe
that CEERES might be able to pay for as many as 14 such courses, rather
than the initially proposed 7.
