ramble through the bronx

yes, this here is ramble through the bronx, the continuing musings of a graduate student* who should be writing her dissertation, but honestly, living in new york city there's really so much else to do...

* and her commenting friends. And guest blogger.

Now THAT'S the kind of headline I like to see from the CBC

Leafs rebound to crush Senators.

6-0.

Nice.

In other words, wish me luck as I apply for the the Newcombe Fellowship from the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation. It's good for $19,000 over 12 months and is pretty prestigious; apparently they have a good track record of having their fellows find jobs.

I'm totally not going to get it (they give out 30, across all disciplines, across the whole U.S.) but given its description, how could I not apply?
The Charlotte W. Newcombe Doctoral Dissertation Fellowships are designed to encourage original and significant study of ethical or religious values in all fields of the humanities and social sciences, and particularly to help Ph.D. candidates in these fields complete their dissertation work in a timely manner. In addition to topics in religious studies or in ethics (philosophical or religious), dissertations appropriate to the Newcombe Fellowship competition might explore the ethical implications of foreign policy, the values influencing political decisions, the moral codes of other cultures, and religious or ethical issues reflected in history or literature.
