ASOR fundraiser

THE ASOR BLOG: March Fellowship Madness 2013.
It's that time of year again! March Fellowship Madness is a month-long drive to raise as many fellowship dollars as possible, so we can get more students in the field! Last year, 80 donors joined in the madness and gave over $9,000. That meant that ASOR was able to award nine additional travel scholarships! That's nine additional scholars who were able to conduct field research and expand our knowledge of the ancient Near East. How many more students can we send to the field this year?
Follow the link for details. And here's a testimonial from fellowship recipient Caroline Carter: The Platt Fellowship Changed My Life. Many years ago, when I was a doctoral student, I got an ASOR travel fellowship to do archaeology for a summer in Israel and it was a very good experience.
