News in Brief

Lindback Nominations: December 10

Nominations for Lindback Awards for members of the standing faculty, and for Provost's Awards for full- and part-time associated faculty and academic support staff are now being accepted by the Office of the Vice Provost for Univeristy Life. The deadline is December 10. Send to Terri Conn at 3611 Locust Walk/6222 or conn@pobox.upenn.edu.

Who Has a Lindback? A roster of all Penn faculty who have won Lindback Awards since the program's inception in 1961 can be found on the Web via the University Archives website.

International Programs Fund: January 20

Applications are due on or before January 20 for consideration under Penn's endowment fund for international programs, which provides support for area and international studies within the context of Penn's Agenda for Excellence.

The International Programs Fund will seed new projects or experimental programs on a short-term basis, and faculty are encouraged to conduct collaborative research with colleagues abroad-especially at institutions with which Penn has formal cooperative agreements.

Awards in the $10,000-$15,000 range will be made on a competitive basis by the provost, with the advice of a faculty committee, using criteria given in an announcement available from Dr. Joyce Randolph, Office of International Programs, 133 Bennett Hall/6275 (or phone 898-4665; fax 898-2622; or e-mail randolph@pobox.upenn.edu).
