Bedford St. Martin's/Macmillan Learning Scholarship for CWPA Summer Workshop

CWPA is thrilled to announce the Bedford St. Martin's/Macmillan Learning Scholarship for a WPA from an under-represented institution to participate in the Summer workshop June 25-27^th at the University of Central Florida. The scholarship amount $1,750 will be used to cover the workshop registration fees, travel, and lodging.

In our efforts to make the workshop more diverse and inclusive, the scholarship application is open for CWPA members and non-members alike.

Considering the restrictions some states have on accepting gifts from publishers, while the scholarship is sponsored by Bedford St. Martin's/Macmillan Learning, it is from CWPA. There should not be any conflict of interest involved.

Writing program directors and coordinators, or anyone performing the work of a WPA without a formal title, from HBCUs, Tribal Colleges, Two-Year Colleges, and minority serving institutions who are interested to be considered for this scholarship should send the following:

• A recent CV
• A one-page letter of interest

Please send application materials to CWPA officers: President (councilofwpa@gmail.com), Treasurer (cwpatrasurer@gmail.com), and Secretary (cwpasecretary@gmail.com). Use (Summer Workshop Scholarship Application) in the subject line.

The deadline of applications is 5:00 PM EDT Thursday June 6^th, 2024.

For questions, please email any CWPA officer.

We look forward to receiving your application.
