Fellows receive a summer stipend to prepare the seminar and recruit students.
Existing independent study, seminar and regular courses are used. At Home in the Heartland, led by Harwood, enables students to investigate the cultural and physical landscapes of Indiana. Teams will transverse Indiana, collecting objects and images, and exploring current issues and historical events that focus on place. Results will be presented in an interactive exhibit at the Minnetrista Cultural Center, the seminar s community sponsor, and at various cultural sites throughout Indiana. The New Century Camera and Media Entertainment Project, directed by Smith, allows students to create, launch and manage an entertainment Web site for original, streaming, interactive drama.
