Call for Applications: HRC Environmental Humanities Lab Student Fellowship Applications, Spring 2025

Deadline: December 1, 2024

The HRC Environmental Humanities Lab is seeking up to three undergraduate student fellows for Spring 2025. The fellowships are open to any undergraduate student at VCU, although preference will be given to students who have taken INTL 325. Fellows will help the co-director develop and pilot a plan for an online repository of resources concerning the environmental history of Richmond, including narrative and visual storytelling. Over the course of the semester, we will meet once every two weeks as a group to coordinate. Finally, fellows will participate in an event with the HRC to present the ongoing development of our toxic tour, and an event in situ in which we conduct part of the tour itself. A stipend of $500 will be awarded to each fellow.

Please submit your proposal using the form below. If you have any questions, please reach out to Kai Bosworth at bosworthk@vcu.edu.
