On behalf of the ARLIS/NA Midstates Chapter, the Awards Committee is pleased to accept applications for the SEI Travel Award. The annual 3.5 day ARLIS/NA-VRAF Summer Educational Institute for Visual Resources and Images delivers workshops on current issues for VR professionals, as well as many opportunities to network with colleagues.
This year SEI will be held from June 10-13, 2014 at the
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign and the SEI Travel Award of $300 is
meant to offset the registration cost by half. Only ARLIS/NA Midstates Chapter
members are eligible. This Travel Award will be granted based on one or more of
the following criteria: financial need; level of chapter participation; and
relevance of the curriculum to professional development.
To apply for this award please submit a letter of
application including relevant criteria and how you will benefit from attending
SEI at the University of Illinois. You must also indicate the level of funding
you expect to receive from your institution and include a current resume or CV.
Please send applications via email to Viveca Pattison Robichaud ([log in to unmask]),
Marsha Stevenson ([log in to unmask])
and Sara Stigberg ([log in to unmask]).
Applications received by May 14, 2014 will be given
first consideration. The recipient must confirm in writing
that they will be able to use the award and will need to provide proof of
registration for SEI to receive the travel award. Award recipients will not be
able to apply again for three years. After receiving the award, the recipient
must submit a short report indicating the value of the award to their
professional development activities. This award is intended for members of the
ARLIS/NA Midstates Chapter. Information about becoming a member of ARLIS/NA and
