[English-undergrad] Fwd: Encourage Your Students to Apply for a UCR Minigrant!

[James Tobias]

Dear English majors,

This is one of the research opportunities we have available for undergrads at UCR, and I encourage you to consider applying if you have done a research paper in class that you have really enjoyed, was highly evaluated by your professor, and is something you would like to take farther.

These funds can also be used to support your travel to a conference where you are going to present research or creative activities.

See below for more details,

jt

"We at UCR would like to respectfully acknowledge and recognize our responsibility to the original and current caretakers of this land, water, and air: the Cahuilla, Tongva, Luiseño, and Serrano peoples and all of their ancestors and descendants, past, present, and future. Today this meeting place is home to many Indigenous peoples from all over the world, including UCR faculty, students, and staff, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work on these homelands."
