Typed responses to application questionnaire SELECTION
In the past several years, 95 percent of IU Bloomington Ph.D.'s who have
found tenure-track positions have found those positions at liberal arts
colleges, smaller comprehensive universities, and urban institutions, many
of which are similar to IU's non-residential campuses. Applicants are often
asked whether they have classroom experience in this kind of environment.
AI teaching experience at Bloomington does not necessarily prepare students
fully for these job opportunities.
For these reasons the Graduate School has developed the Future Faculty
Teaching Fellowship Program, funded by the Graduate School and the
University through the Strategic Directions Charter.

The Borns Jewish Studies Program at Indiana University invites applications for the Friends of
Borns Jewish Studies Program Graduate Fellowship for the 2000-2001 year. We are interested in
hearing from students who show clear promise of dedicating themselves seriously to scholarship
within one of the core areas of Jewish Studies. The Friends of the Borns Jewish Studies Program
Graduate Fellowship provides a $15,000 stipedn and a full fee remission to an incoming Indiana
University graduate student, and it can be tied to a multi-year package of support through
fellowships and teaching assistantships. A special feature of this fellowship is a well developed
program of mentoring. The faculty of the Borns Jewish Studies Program is committed to helping
our graduate students acquire the full range of professional skills they will need in their future
careers, and we aim to foster such development through a close and continuing working
relationships with the holders of the Friends fellowship.
