The UW-Milwaukee Center for 21st Century Studies announced its 2016-17 fellowship recipients: Erica Bornstein (Anthropology); Nan Kim (History); Nadine Kozak (School of Information Studies); Ann Mattis (English, UW-Sheboygan); Jocelyn Szczepaniak-Gillece (English); and Tanya Tiffany (Art History).
Each year a specific yet broad area of research is pursued by the center. UWM faculty – and faculty from other UW System schools and beyond – are selected to participate as Fellows. Lectures, seminars, conferences and colloquia are coordinated around the year’s research theme. The focus of research in 2016-17 is Naysaying.
The center also hosts faculty from other countries who come to UWM with Fulbright or ACLS Fellowships, or support from their own institutions. Typically, the center provides these International Fellows of the Center, as they are designated, with an office in the center along with the other Center Fellows and as much research assistance, including library privileges, as possible.
