The Department makes funds available for students to present papers at conferences. Students should have the approval of a sponsoring faculty member before submitting a paper or proposal to a conference. Preference is given to Ph.D. students. Letters of application should be submitted to the Chair through Sara Stone and should be co-signed by the sponsoring faculty member. Priority will go to student presenters who have not previously received this type of support from the Department.
Students are eligible every year.
A copy of the letter should accompany the request for the money. The MLA travel subsidy may not be combined with a conference travel grant to give a paper at the MLA Requests should be submitted to Sara Stone.
