Description: | Riverrun Foundation funds four very modest fellowships for English department graduate students each year (three for travel to research collections and one for the best syllabus for a literature course — enabling the student to teach a 200-level literature course in the department). The condition of the fellowship is that the students engage in a community-oriented brief presentation of their projects, free and open to the public. This is held every fall — sometimes in Talking Leaves Books, Burchfield Penney Art Center, or The Mansion on Delaware. |
