Financial Aid for Graduate Students |
A modest scholarship fund has been set aside

the conference. We shall be able to offer up to $150 in travel support on a
first-come, first-served basis, so long as funds last. To obtain financial aid,
please address requests to the ACLA 2001 Program Committee by regular mail at
the address given above or by e-mail at acla2001@colorado.edu.
Please note that, to obtain financial aid,
applicants must present a paper at the conference and must have applied for financial
support from their home institutions.
