Smith Experiential Learning Fund
The Smith Experiential Learning Fund was established through a donor's generous gift in honor of Dr. Gerald Smith, Professor Emeritus of Religion. The purpose of the fund is to foster community engagement, place-based study in the local area, fieldwork, and hands-on learning so that students will gain insight into how Appalachian people have encountered the region physically, intellectually, and spiritually. Awards will be restricted to projects that are in the humanities and humanistic social sciences or are interdisciplinary with strong input from humanities. The fieldwork must be conducted in the Appalachian region. Individuals and groups (including interdisciplinary groups that have at least one member from the arts and humanities) are encouraged to apply. Individuals may request up to $2,000 in funding, and groups may request up to $7,500.
