[ATTW-L] CCCC Wikipedia Graduate Fellowship Program

[Sweta Baniya]

Dear All,

Greetings from the CCCC Wikipedia Initiative. (*Apologies for
cross-posting) *


Here is an opportunity to get involved (or involve your graduate student
colleagues) in advancing and expanding the knowledge equity and public
scholarship aims of the CCCC Wikipedia initiative. I am writing to ask for
your help in getting the word out about our new CCCC Wikipedia Graduate
Fellowship Program or be part of it.

Graduate students in writing studies and related fields are invited to apply
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1I5z4330rnUfCNUlnxxEqMMnTn6NHvsBlmvgymdhJlII/edit?usp=sharing>.
The fellowship is aimed at emerging scholars who are 1) invested in
knowledge equity and the international scholarly community and 2)
interested in hands-on experience with Wikipedia and the digital public
humanities. 2021-2022 CCCC Wikipedia Graduate Fellows will have the
opportunity to work with a mentor of their choice on a project of their own
design that actively addresses knowledge equity on Wikipedia. *Fellows will
receive a stipend of $2,000.*

For full fellowship details, see the full call for applications

The Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) Wikipedia
Initiative is accepting applications for the 2021-22 CCCC Wikipedia
Graduate Fellowship Program. Graduate students in writing studies and
related fields are invited to apply

Established in 2019, the CCCC Wikipedia Initiative
<https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/wikipedia-initiative/> proceeds from the
conviction that public scholarship and knowledge equity on Wikipedia serve
as fundamental groundwork for social justice. We are developing skills,
cultivating inclusive community, and building structures of support and
recognition for scholars of writing, rhetoric, literacy, and language
studies who want to engage with Wikipedia as a form of global public
scholarship.

2021-22 CCCC Wikipedia Graduate Fellows will receive a $2,000 stipend in
recognition of their one-year appointment to advance and expand the work of
the CCCC Wikipedia Initiative. Applications
