The Gerber Institute for Catholic Studies invites all full-time and half-time faculty members of Newman University to apply to become Gerber Faculty Fellows for the 2011-2012 academic year. The deadline for submitting an application is March 31, 2011.

For a one year appointment, Fellows receive a stipend of $1,300 and a one course release from teaching responsibilities. In return, Fellows are expected to advance a research agenda as well as contribute to the Institute's mission of promoting dialogue, with a special focus on engaging the Newman community in this dialogue.

Currently, the Gerber Institute is continuing to explore the theme of reconciling differences. In addition, as part of this broad thematic inquiry we plan to devote special attention during the upcoming year to the topic of education.

For more information, please contact the Institute's director, Jamey Findling, or visit the Institute's website at www.gerberinstitute.org.
