Dear HASTAC Members,

Now is the time to apply for HASTAC Scholars, or encourage your students to apply! The application period closes on October 15. Please apply here or share this link with interested colleagues and students: bit.ly/apply-to-hastac-scholars.

All graduate and undergraduate students are welcome to apply. Scholars who identify as members of historically underrepresented or marginalized groups are especially encouraged to apply, as are groups of students who are part of the same program. The application is not lengthy, and the program connects students with a valuable network of peers across the country.

Beginning this year, Scholars will be admitted for a two-year cycle. During their second year, Scholars will be encouraged to take on greater leadership and peer mentoring roles. We think that this extended timeline will go a long way toward building peer mentorship structures and keeping consistent activity and energy on the site year-round.

Please don’t hesitate to email us with any questions at scholars@hastac.org.

Our very best,
Allison Guess and Kalle Westerling
HASTAC Scholars Co-Directors
