Research Conference Grants Notice: As a temporary measure, to cope with the
current financial situation at the University, our DRCLAS Research Conference
Grants for November 1st, 2009 and March 15th, 2010 will be put "on
hold".
The Executive Committee of the David Rockefeller Center for Latin
American Studies, in a discussion of our budget situation for next
year, has recommended that, as a temporary measure for the next year or
two, we not allocate funds to support research conferences at the Center, except
in the most unusual of circumstances. Deciding to put research conference
programming “on hold” at the Center was a difficult decision to make.
However, we felt it most important to be able to continue to provide
resources for students interested in Latin America and for faculty
research related to the region. Research conferences are an important part of
our on-going activities and we hope we can resume funding such
activities when the financial situation improves.
