March 31, 2014\u2014<\/strong>The Center for the Study of Women in Society at the University of Oregon recently awarded almost $80,000 in graduate student and faculty research grants to support research on women and gender during the 2014-15 Academic Year. Research projects funded include a documentary film focused on the daily difficulties of an extended family of Zapotec indigenous immigrants divided between Oregon and Oaxaca, and a theatre collaboration that brings indigenous playwrights together with regional Native women to create a new performance work thematically focused on Women and Rivers. CSWS funded research on bisexuality; Military Sexual Trauma; the sexualization of cheerleading and its impact on college students, children, and families, and much more. In all, twelve UO graduate students will receive awards ranging from $2,400 to almost $16,000. Eight faculty scholars will receive awards of $6,000 each.<\/p>\n

Jane Grant Dissertation Fellowship<\/h5>\n

Jene\u00e9 Wilde, Department of English (Folklore) was awarded the prestigious Jane Grant Dissertation Fellowship. Her dissertation topic is \u201cSpeculative Fictions, Bisexual Lives: Changing Frameworks of Non-Binary Desire.\u201d Wilde wrote in her application: \u201cWhile studies of gay, lesbian, and transgender communities and cultural production have dramatically increased over the last two decades, research on bisexuality remains highly undervalued in humanities and a majority of social science disciplines. To challenge this dearth of scholarship and to demonstrate the untapped potential of bisexuality studies, my English\/Folklore PhD project develops a fresh approach using textual, cultural, and ethnographic methods of bisexuality research.\u201d<\/p>\n
