Visitorships for International Scholars
In 2008, the Humanities Center began a collaboration with the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI). The two institutions started a pilot program to bring high profile international scholars to Stanford for short-term residencies. This pilot project has become a successful and flourishing Humanities Center program, the International Visitors Program, and the Center seeks funds to sustain this program through expendable gifts and permanent endowment. This is the Center’s highest fundraising priority.
