We are pleased to announce that Dr. May Mei was awarded the 2016 Career Enhancement Fellowship for Junior Faculty from the Woodrow Wilson Foundation. With this Fellowship, Dr. Mei will take her junior sabbatical leave this fall, with a course reduction in the spring. As noted in the award letter:

The Fellowship is funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and administered by the Woodrow Wilson Foundation (WW). It allows exceptional junior faculty to pursue scholarly research and writing during the Fellowship period in order to facilitate the acquisition of tenure.

We are excited to see her hard work nationally recognized - congratulations Dr. Mei!
