THE EDITH AND ARNOLD N. BODTKER GRANT
- The Edith and Arnold N. Bodtker Grant for Research and Internship (henceforth referred to as "Bodtker Grant") was created in 1998 to provide stipends of up to $5,000 for students interested in studying and researching topics related to Danish immigration to North America and Danish American and Danish Canadian culture. The Bodtker Grant is for research and internship in the Danish American Archive and Library in Blair, Nebraska, the Danish American Archive at Grand View University in Des Moiines, Iowa, the Danish Immigrant Museum in Elk Horn, Iowa, or elsewhere in North America. North American students interested in similar, appropriate topics may apply for a Bodtker Grant for research in Denmark.
Applicants must be currently enrolled at or graduated from a university level institution. They must have a designed research or internship project that makes a stay in the USA or Canada (for Danish or North American students) or in Denmark (for North American students) necessary for their research.
Proposals for grant projects, as well as a proposed budget, and least two letter of reference should be submitted by April 15 or September 15 to Egon Bodtker, President, Danish American Heritage Society, 925 15th St., NE, Salem, OR 97301--USA. Results of the competition will be announced by May 20 and October 20. |
