The Interdisciplinary Course Audit Resource (ICAR) encourages faculty
to audit a course outside their area of expertise at the Claremont
Colleges. Four stipends of $1000 and funds for textbooks are available
to auditors in Fall 2004 and again in Spring 2005. The link above provides
complete details about this Mellon-funded program.
A Faculty Forum on bringing societal context into scientific and
and technical courses will run in tandem with the '04-'05 Hixon-Riggs
speaker series. The visitors will work with faculty to design and
test class exercises that combine novel perspectives with existing
curriculum.
A stipend of $300 is available for faculty who can participate in all
four lunchtime forums. Details on the invited speakers
and the meeting format are available from the above link.
