EMPOWERING WOMEN MEDIEVALISTS

 

Applications for the Bonnie Wheeler Fellowship
are open from November 1, 2022 through January 31, 2023
 
 
Established to honor well-known medievalist, The Bonnie Wheeler Fellowship Fund of the Dallas Foundation supports the research of women medievalists with tenure below the rank of full professor as they complete major research projects that will satisfy professional promotion.
 
We feel this support is necessary despite the fact that women make up 50.0 percent of faculty overall. Based on 2020 IPEDS data, half of those women are at the rank of assistant professor, the percentage is lower for associate professors (45.0 percent) and even lower for full professors (32.5 percent). 
 
Recipients of the $25,000 stipend are also paired with a distinguished mentor in the field who engages with the recipient and her project to its successful completion.

With your generous support, Bonnie Wheeler's legacy will live on
for generations of students and scholars of Medieval Studies.
