2018 Grant-funded Summer Institutes
Native American Studies
In concert with Whitman College’s Dr. Christopher Leise,
Dr. Laurie Arnold won a grant from the
National Endowment for the Humanities to host a Summer Institute for faculty development June 17 – July 1. The institute,
“The Native American West: A Case Study of the Columbia Plateau,” will bring faculty from two- and four-year institutions together to explore a variety of perspectives on the Native American West, the Columbia Plateau, and U.S. history. Applications are available at
nativeamericanwest.org and are due March 1.
Women’s Leadership
Thanks to a grant from the
Women’s Funding Alliance, Gonzaga and WSU Health Sciences Spokane will host a
National Education for Women’s Leadership summer institute July 12-17, 2018. The residential program seeks to remedy the imbalance of women in political arenas to achieve a more representative system. The program also seeks to increase young women’s leadership efficacy by providing development of leadership skills and coaching from past and present women leaders.
Cynthia Stavrianos and
Heather Crandall teamed up with WSU’s Veronica Puente to submit the grant; applications are open now through April 20 at
spokane.wsu.edu/studentaffairs/new-leadership.
