Laurance S. Rockefeller Visiting Fellowships

The University Center invites applications from all disciplines for
Laurance S. Rockefeller Visiting Fellowships. These fellowships will be
awarded for the academic year 2007-08 to outstanding scholars and
teachers interested in devoting a year in residence at Princeton writing
about ethics and human values.

A central activity for the Fellows is participation with University
Center faculty members in a Fellows Seminar to discuss work in progress.
Fellows are also invited to participate in other activities, including
seminars, colloquia, and public lectures. Fellows enjoy access to
Firestone Library and to a wide range of activities throughout the
University. Applicants typically have a doctorate or a professional
postgraduate degree and cannot be in the process of writing a dissertation.

Fellows normally receive stipends of up to one-half their academic year
salaries (not exceeding a maximum stipend set each fall) for the
fellowship period, which extends from September 1 to July 1. The
Fellows' home institutions are expected to provide at least half of
their salaries in addition to all benefits. A selection committee of
University Center faculty evaluates applicants on the basis of:

*	The significance of their proposed  research and its relevance to the
purposes of the University Center;
*	The quality of their previous  research and their ability to benefit
from the activities of the University  Center;
*	The contribution they are likely to make to higher education in the
future through teaching and writing about  ethics and human values.

For some fellowships preference may be given to applicants with research
interests in the broad area of the Democracy and Human Values Project;
see www.princeton.edu/~uchv/dhvp.html  .

This confidential information will not be presented  to the faculty
committee.
