grant is
awarded annually to a student in various disciplines including, but not

already
be engaged in your dissertation research.
The
application deadline is Tuesday,

committee
consisting of professors, practitioners and other leaders in the field
of
lifelong learning. The recipient will be announced in June 2009.
