The fall deadline is fast approaching: all applications must arrive at the AAS office in Ann Arbor, Michigan by October 1, 2007. The application process is relatively simple and there are a variety of categories in which to apply for funds. These include grants for research travel; small conferences on Korea; projects that enhance teaching about Korea; inviting distinguished speakers on Korea to speak at your institution, and support for graduate students whose papers have been selected for presentation at the Annual Meeting of the Association for Asian Studies. Also, please note that the spring deadline for these applications is February 1, 2008. The application form and specific information on each grant category is available on the NEAC/AAS website: http://www.aasianst.org/grants/main.htm#NEAC-KOREAN For more information, please contact Jan Bardsley:bardsley@email.unc.eduJan BardsleyChair, Northeast Asia CouncilAssociate Professor, Japanese HumanitiesThe University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
