Agency History | The Institute for the Study of Culture & Society (ICS) was established in 1996 as a public humanities hub at Bowling Green State University. The aim of the ICS is to "encourage innovation in the arts, humanities, and social sciences, and to communicate the value and significance of that work to the wider public through public events and outreach efforts." Activities of the ICS include "support for faculty collaboration across traditional disciplinary boundaries, and serving as an incubator for innovative research and teaching." Additional records for ICS may be found at the BGSU institutional repository: http://scholarworks.bgsu.edu/ics/ | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Series Description | The Fellows series forms the bulk of this collection, with the application packets originally submitted by Fellows prior to their selection. Most common record types for each Fellow includes the application, abstract and detailed description of their proposed project, a curriculum vitae, and letters of recommendation. Also included frequently are flyers and other materials regarding the public presentation of their work. The materials are arranged alphabetically by Fellow last name. Materials for 2011-2012 fellows are in a separate group in box 4. The Administrative series consists of two annual reports, published "working papers" from the Institute and lists of past Fellows. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
