The Center serves as a resource for students and faculty to learn more about opportunities to collaborate, pairing faculty and students based on areas of student expertise.

These assistantships provide mutual benefits—helping scholars with their work while giving students meaningful experience and insights about research and teaching in the humanities through a variety of tasks, including archival research; annotated bibliographies; textual editing; course, seminar or symposium design and preparation; database and web design; and curatorial apprenticeship.

• Faculty or departments with Humanities projects may apply for funding of up to $4,300 to cover student wages and materials for up to 10 weeks of summer work. Proposals for shorter projects are also welcome.
• The Center prioritizes returning students, but recent graduates are eligible to work during their post-graduation summer.

Note: Modest faculty funding for Students Research Assistants is also available at any time of the year through the Tuttle Fund for Development of Visual Culture Across the Curriculum.
