Assistant Professor Carolyn Fornoff has been awarded an inaugural Illinois Program for Research in the Humanities Summer Faculty Research Fellowship to work on her book Subjunctive Aesthetics. 

Prof. Fornoff is one of only two faculty fellows chosen this first year of this competitive award. The Summer Faculty Research Fellowship is designed to assist faculty through funding to maximize summer research and to foster their professional development.  Prof. Fornoff will be working on a chapter on climate change and indigenous futurity which is part of her book in-progress, Subjunctive Aesthetics: Mexican Culture in the Era of Climate Change. Well done Carolyn!
