I would certainly be happy to contribute some funding for the curriculum transformation workshop with Lisa Lowe. Will faculty members actively engaged in curriculum transformation projects funded by our project be able to attend the workshop as well? I would like to extend an invitation to faculty who would be interested?

We have sucessfully secured a commitment from Lisa Lowe, Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of California, San Diego. We are hoping to inlvolve other departments and organizations on campus, and are aspiring to secure more funding for Lowe's visit to the UW, which is scheduled for January 30th, 2003. The following day, she will host a syllabus workshop so we might explore the ways we can re-imagine education by using minority identity politics and globalization as tools. > > We are in need of about $1000 still, and hope your center might be able to give us a grant. We are currently also being funded by the Simpson Center for the Humanities, and hope to secure funding from other departments. As the grant proposal contains more details, I have attached it here. Please let me know if you might be able to partially support this project. > > Thanks, > Rahul > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ > Rahul Krishna Gairola > Department of English Office: Padelford B25C > University of Washington Hours: T, Th 2:30-4pm > Seattle, WA 98195-4330/ USA Phone: (206) 685-8960 > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ > > > > > > .
