TitleNational Endowment for the Humanities Summer Seminars and Institutes
Body
Each year the National Endowment for the Humanities offers teachers opportunities to study humanities topics in a variety of Summer Seminars and Institutes. Seminars and Institutes are 2-6 week projects which take place in the United States and abroad. Full-time teachers in American K-12 schools, whether public, private, or church-affiliated, as well as home-schooling parents, are eligible to apply to seminars and institutes.

All teachers selected to participate in a seminar or institute will be awarded a fixed stipend based on the length of the seminar or institute to help cover travel costs, books and other research expenses, and living expenses: $1,800 (2 weeks), $2,400 (3 weeks), $3,000 (4 weeks), $3,600 (5 weeks), or $4,200 (6 weeks).

Among the subjects to be studied are:
* Latin, Spanish, and Arabic literature
* Himalayan and Mesoamerican cultures
* the American Great Plains
* the Holocaust

For a complete list of the projects offered, along with eligibility requirements and contact information for the directors, go to the NEH website at: http://www.neh.gov/projects/si-school.html>www.neh.gov/projects/si-school.html .
