Publicly Active Graduate Education (PAGE)
The PAGE Institute is held annually at the Imagining America National Conference
What is "Publicly Active Graduate Education"? How does our academic scholarship activate our civic engagement, and vice versa? When theory and practice unite in community-based projects led by graduate students, what are the implications—for graduate students, for the communities involved, and for graduate education?
Every year, Imagining America: Artists and Scholars in Public Life invites graduate students in the arts, humanities, and design with a demonstrated interest in public engagement to apply to be PAGE (Publicly Active Graduate Education) Fellows at Imagining America’s national conference. Fellows attend a day-long, pre-conference “PAGE Summit” devoted to building the theoretical and practical language with which to articulate their own public scholarship; attend the general conference sessions; and have opportunities for individual mentorship with leaders in the field of public cultural practice; and are invited to participate in the conference’s poster session.
Graduate students at all stages of their MA/MFA/PhD programs have been PAGE Fellows. Fellows receive cash stipends towards the expenses of attending the conference, and have their conference registration fee waived.
2007 PAGE Fellows enjoy a conference break and more caffeine.
