2009 Merl E. Reed Fellowship in Southern Labor History

The Merl E. Reed Fellowship in Southern Labor History was established in 2000 to honor Dr. Merl Reed, professor, scholar and founder of the archives, for his many contributions to education and labor history. One fellowship of $250-$500 is awarded annually to individuals whose research in the Southern Labor Archives will lead to a book, article, dissertation, or other substantive product. In return, recipients will make a presentation about their research to the Georgia State University community within one academic year after receiving the award.

Faculty members, graduate students, upper-level undergraduates, and independent scholars and artists are encouraged to apply.

History, applications should be postmarked on or before December 15, 2008. The application, and a list of other requirements, can be found at http://www.library.gsu.edu/spcoll/.
