SCSM Graduate Student and Contingent Faculty Travel Fund
In the wake of our 2023 Annual Meeting at Duke Divinity School at Duke University in Durham, NC, SCSM is seeking donations towards the SCSM Travel Fund. This fund was established in 2016 to offer some modest assistance toward conference travel costs to SCSM members who qualify for reduced rate membership. This includes conference participants (presenters, panelists, or committee members) who self-identify as students, members of religious orders, adjunct professors, and those who are retired, unemployed, or underemployed. The amount of funding for each such participant that applies for support is determined by their need, the number of applicants, and, crucially, the amount available in the Travel Fund. Due to disbursements made for the 2022 meeting, the Travel Fund is in need of some replenishment for 2023 and beyond. Online gifts can be made towards the SCSM Travel Grant at this link, and can also be made in person at the March meeting.
