      participate, as do university faculty and administrators from 4-
      year colleges and universities, community colleges, and
      minority-serving institutions.
      Each year's grantees include not only scholars from academe, but
      also professionals from the business community, independent
      scholars, artists, research scientists, applied professionals in
      technical fields, government employees, journalists, lawyers, and many
      others.
      If you think this program would be of interest to your colleagues,
      please forward the attached announcement. As the competition deadline
      is August 1, it would need to be sent no later than June/early July.
      We very much appreciate your assistance.
