Examples of potential research topics include (but are not limited to): the effects of the economic and social organization of media industries on representations of sexual and gender identity; the formation and development of independent media sectors by and for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people; the reception of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender television characters by a range of audiences; public opinion on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues; the development and political intervention of anti-gay media campaigns; the social and cultural significance of the erotic press for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people; media coverage of legislative reform in contemporary and historical contexts; media images of AIDS activism and of people with AIDS/HIV; youth-oriented images of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people, including such educational materials as textbooks and classroom videos; queer cultures in cyberspace.
The GLAAD Dissertation Fellowship Program encourages disciplinary and methodological diversity, and thus seeks proposals from the humanities, social sciences, public health, public policy, education and allied fields.
To apply, applicants must submit a cover sheet as well as three (3) copies of: (1) a 6-8 page project description that demonstrates how the applicant's research addresses the themes of the fellowship program and that outlines the project's methodology or research approach; (2) a 2-page bibliography.

National: United Church of Christ Gay Seminary Scholarships
The United Church of Christ (UCC) offers scholarships to lesbians and gay men who will work in church ministry. A $500,000 fund has been established and the church said it expects to award at least 10 students annually and hopes to double the fund. "This fund is a powerful reminder that the response to God's call to ministry should not be limited by economics or sexual orientation," says John H. Thomas, president of UCC.
The scholarship is named after the Rev. William R. Johnson, who in 1972 became the first openly gay man to be ordained by the UCC. He is currently a staff member at the church's national offices in Cleveland. Johnson said he is pleased to lend his name to the scholarship. In 1970 he lost his seminary field job when he came out as openly gay. He was only able to remain at the seminary after a church member arranged a scholarship.
The United Church of Christ was formed in 1957 with the merger of the Congregational Christian Churches and the Evangelical and Reformed Church. and is considered one of the most progressive denominations in regard to lesbian and gay issues. UCC identifies itself as "one of the most diverse Christian churches in the United States." Even as early as 1969, the church took a stand opposing sodomy laws and the military's ban on lesbians and gay men serving in the military.
Information on the W.R. Johnson Fund and other scholarship funds is available from Local Church Ministries, 216-736-3839. Contributions earmarked "W.R. Johnson Scholarship Fund" may be sent to Local Church Ministries, United Church of Christ, 700 Prospect Ave, Cleveland, OH 44115-1100.

AZ: Rockefeller Humanities Residency Fellowships at the University of AZ
The Committee on Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Studies at the University of Arizona is offering two Rockefeller Humanities Residency Fellowships in each of the 2001-02, 2002-03 and 2003-04 academic years.
Eligibility: Full-time student in good academic standing with a minimum overall GPA of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale; recipient must demonstrate outstanding commitment to and support for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered students at The University of Alabama;
The Sex, Race and Globalization (SRG) project explores the imbrication of sexuality, gender and race with economic, political and informational processes across local, regional, national and transnational scales. Noting that global movements of capital, information and people are facilitated, blocked, and diverted by sexual, racial and national categorizations, even as cultural formations are reshaped by "globalization," we seek to describe and explain the links between exploitative economic processes and structures of sexual, gender, and racial inequality.
Seeking to broach the boundaries between studies of culture and studies of economic, social and political processes, we invite applications from interdisciplinary scholars or scholars trained in any discipline interested in pursuing interdisciplinary work. Recognizing that "globalization" is a transformation of prior systems of global economic and political interaction, we welcome applications from scholars working in or across various historical periods. While the SRG project sustains the commitment of lesbian/gay studies to recognizing the significance of sexuality, we seek to develop alliances among identity and area studies fields and, therefore, welcome applications from scholars who have not worked in the context of lesbian/gay studies.
Located 70 miles from the US-Mexico border and the export-processing zone across the border, and surrounded by Native American reservations, Tucson and the University of Arizona provide a particularly appropriate site for the study of global/local, cultural and economic processes. The university features vibrant programs/departments in Comparative Cultural and Literary Studies, Women's Studies, Latin American Studies, American Indian Studies, Mexican American Studies, and Middle East Studies (among many others) as well as top ranked departments in numerous fields. It is also the home of the renowned Center for Creative Photography.
Fellows will receive a stipend of $35,000, travel/research funds ($4000), a moving allowance ($2000), an office, and full access to university libraries, computer systems, recreational facilities and the many scholarly and cultural programs offered across the university.
Application Deadline: December 1.
