The Institute for the Arts and Humanities will publish our next e-newsletter in June. Here's a preview of what'll you see:

Meet the Spring 2009 IAH Featured Fellow: Patricia Parker, an associate professor of organizational communication in the Department of Communication Studies and two-time IAH Fellow. Among the exciting work Dr. Parker has undertaken is founding The Ella Baker Women’s Center for Leadership and Community Activism. Dr. Parker and young women from her STRIVING SISTERS SPEAK!!! (S3) group attended the presidential Inauguration in January... and they've been very busy since! We'll tell you all about her latest projects.
Did you know that Sen. John Kerry came to UNC to deliver the Weil Lecture on American Citizenship? Read about his visit.
The big win by the UNC men's basketball team shone a spotlight on Carolina's strong Athletics program, but for some, athletics and academia don't always seem to meet eye-to-eye. Read a Perspective from IAH Academic Leadership Fellow Steve Reznick about The Place of Athletics at Carolina.
Those familiar with Faculty Fellows Program Coordinator Martha Marks know very well what a wonderful person she is--and now the rest of the University community does, too. Martha was awarded the Robert R. Cornwell Unsung Hero Award for 2008 to honor her contributions to UNC.

In addition, we'll also publish our fall fellowship application deadlines for the 2010-2011 academic year and a few other notes about what we've been up to this spring.
