    • Tuesday, May 30: Grant writing, with Maneesha Kelkar<\/strong>\n
        \n
      • Have a vague idea about a grant? Not sure how to start? At this session, Maneesha Kelkar will lead participants through a basic overview of grant writing, with particular attention to grants in the social justice field. Although individual grants and fields have their own requirements, Maneesha will draw on her experiences writing and reviewing grants to offer some more broadly applicable tips. Bring ideas you have for your own grant proposal or learn some ideas for future applications.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Maneesha Kelkar has nearly two decades of experience leading social justice organizations, with work ranging from service provision to policy advocacy. She has consistently used grant writing as a key tool to raise funds for the issues she believes in.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
      • Wednesday, May 31: Creating a scholarly profile, with Siobhan McCarthy (Sprague Library)<\/strong>\n
          \n
        • How are scholarly\u00a0profiles different from any other professional or social network, and how can maintaining one improve your visibility as a researcher, or help with job prospects as a graduate student? In this workshop, we will discuss the benefits and drawbacks of the various scholarly networks, including Research Gate, Google Scholar, ORCID, and Selected Works (Digital Commons).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
