John G. Medlin, Jr. Fellowship

Due Date: October 6, 2022

The National Humanities Center is a free standing national resource devoted to advancing significant humanistic study and reflection and to making those insights available both inside and outside the academic world. Each year, the Center welcomes up to forty scholars from across the humanities and all over the world, targeting its support specifically to Mid-career and senior scholars. With an interest in strengthening the representation of faculty from liberal arts colleges, the Center and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation have dedicated to this effort the John G. Medlin, Jr. Fellowship. Residential Fellowships are awarded to established scholars, meaning that successful candidates have typically published at least one single-author book or a significant body of peer-reviewed scholarship. (Please consult Eligibility requirements for further information.)

During their time in residence, Fellows are given the freedom to work on their projects while benefiting from the exceptional services of the Center, located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The stunning Archie K. Davis building offers private studies, light-filled common areas, and verdant grounds. The Center also provides scholars with exceptional library services, breakfasts, and lunches in the dining area, and administrative support in organizing seminars and study groups.
