The UW System Institute on Race and Ethnicity announces the availability of grant funds for campus reading seminars. Campus reading seminar grants support reading groups and scholarly exchanges on subjects dealing with race, ethnicity, diversity, equity and inclusivity by making funds available for the purchase of books that focus on such themes. Participants in campus reading seminars may include faculty members, academic and classified staff, students and community members. A faculty or academic staff member must submit the proposal. The interdisciplinary composition and diversity of the participants foster intracampus and cross-disciplinary exchanges, stimulate curricular and pedagogical innovations, and encourage campus-community interactions.Information about the program and proposal format is available online. The application deadline is Nov. 15; electronic submissions are welcome. For more information, contact Franc James, Institute on Race and Ethnicity, at
