Dear CSWAC,

 

Please see below and attached to learn more about an available resource opportunity for junior (or recently tenured) faculty.

 

The Center for the Study of Women at UCLA acknowledges the Tongva peoples as the traditional land caretakers of Tovaangar (Los Angeles basin, So. Channel Islands) and are grateful to have the opportunity to work for the taraaxatom (indigenous peoples) in this place. As a land grant institution, we pay our respects to Honuukvetam (Ancestors), 'Ahiihirom (Elders), and 'eyoohiinkem (our relatives/relations) past, present and emerging.

 

Hi Grace and Rosa,

 

I first sent this to dept chairs, but then I realized I should send it to CSW, too, because there might be junior or recently-junior CSWAC faculty who would benefit from pandemic resources program – research funds or teaching release! See my email to the chairs below.

 

The direct link to the form is: https://sa.ucla.edu/Forms/record/individual/doHQgpHRLVC-oaBOJr3tIyU21aVZi!8SdnpePRWJZw-rYEIKZLG1XqJZo5gCVz9O

Dear Jason, Randy, and Sherene,

 

Apparently, there have been fewer applications to the pandemic resources program from junior (or recently tenured) faculty than we expected. I’m hoping that the Anthro/AIS/GS faculty have applied – the application takes just a few minutes and is not extensive, and there are research funds ($1K minimum, likely to be more for many people) and time-saving teaching releases to be distributed.

 

I don’t think this program was widely-enough advertised. The deadline has been extended until tomorrow, I believe. I’m hoping everyone got the reminder, but I know folks just can’t keep up with email. So, if you know of eligible people who might not have applied, please feel free to pass along the attached memo.

 

Let’s get that money/time!

 

Thanks!

Jessica
