Visiting Scholar Program

Last Updated: This page has not been published
The Visiting Scholar in Archaeology Program is currently on hiatus. When active, the program supported motivated scholars to organize and conduct the annual Visiting Scholar Conference. Each conference resulted in an edited volume of selected papers that the Visiting Scholar assembled and edited while in residence at SIU Carbondale. Conference proceedings were published through CAI’s Occasional Papers series. The Visiting Scholar also pursued his/her own research during the period of the award, taught one seminar in his/her specialty, and interacted productively with colleagues and students in the CAI and the Department of Anthropology.
