We hope you and your family are safe and healthy during these difficult times.

We’ve made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Retreat, as Fordham University has canceled all summer conferences that require housing this year. While we understand this is the safest option, this is disappointing news for us, as we’re sure that it must be for our incoming fellows and faculty. We are grateful to everyone who shared their work with us by applying, as well as the fellows and faculty who carved out a week of their summer schedule to be with us. We are deferring our 2020 fellows to the 2021 Retreat and will later be in touch with what this means for applications next year. Meanwhile, we hope everyone stays safe and virtually in touch with our community. We are looking into new ways to stay connected to everyone, so stay tuned!
