The National Endowment for the Humanities
In order "to promote progress and scholarship in the humanities and the arts in the United
States," Congress enacted the National Foundation on the Arts and the Humanities Act of 1965.
This act established the National Endowment for the Humanities as an independent grant-making
agency of the federal government to support research, education, and public programs in the
humanities. In fiscal year 2000, grants were made through Federal-State Partnership, four
divisions (Education Programs, Preservation and Access, Public Programs, and Research
Programs) and the Office of Challenge Grants.
The act that established the National Endowment for the Humanities says, "The term 'humanities'
includes, but is not limited to, the study of the following: language, both modern and classical;
linguistics; literature; history; jurisprudence; philosophy; archaeology; comparative religion;
ethics; the history, criticism, and theory of the arts; those aspects of social sciences which have
humanistic content and employ humanistic methods; and the study and application of the
humanities to the human environment with particular attention to reflecting our diverse heritage,
traditions, and history and to the relevance of the humanities to the current conditions of national
life."
What the Endowment Supports
The National Endowment for the Humanities supports exemplary work to advance and
disseminate knowledge in all the disciplines of the humanities. Endowment support is intended
to complement and assist private and local efforts and to serve as a catalyst to increase
nonfederal support for projects of high quality. To date, NEH matching grants have helped
generate almost $1.64 billion in gift funds. Each application to the Endowment is assessed by
knowledgeable persons outside the agency who are asked to judge about the quality and
significance of the proposals. About 731 scholars, professionals in the humanities, and other
experts served on 154 panels throughout the year.

The Jefferson Lecture
On March 27, 2000, historian James M. McPherson delivered the Jefferson Lecture in the
Humanities at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. In his lecture, "For a Vast Future Also:
Lincoln and the Millennium," McPherson spoke about Lincoln's sense of history as he
envisioned the future for our country and for the world.
McPherson described Lincoln's reverence for the goals of the American Revolution and his
admiration for Thomas Jefferson's inspiring words. McPherson recounted a speech that Lincoln
gave on George Washington's birthday in Pennsylvania, 1861: "Lincoln told them: 'I have never
had a feeling politically that did not spring from the sentiments embodied in the Declaration of
Independence.' The ringing phrases that 'all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of
Happiness,' said Lincoln, 'gave promise' not just to Americans, but 'hope to the world' that 'in due
time the weights should be lifted from the shoulders of all men, and that all should have an equal
chance.'"
"Lincoln had come a long way in his understanding of history since his boyhood reading of
Weems's biography of George Washington," said McPherson. He said Lincoln saw the Union's
victory in the Civil War as imperative for the survival of democracy in the world. "'Our popular
government has often been called an experiment,' he told a special session of Congress that met
on July 4, 1861. 'Two points in it, our people have already settled--the successful establishing,
and the successful administering of it. One still remains--its successful maintenance against a
formidable internal attempt to overthrow it.' If that attempt succeeded, said Lincoln, the forces of
reaction in Europe would smile in smug satisfaction at this proof of their contention that the
upstart republic launched in 1776 could not last."
McPherson continued, "The American sense of mission invoked by Lincoln--the idea that the
American experiment in democracy was a beacon of liberty and democracy for oppressed people
everywhere is as old as the Mayflower Compact and as new as apparent American victory in the
Cold War."
Born in North Dakota and raised in Minnesota, McPherson's first fascination with the Civil War
began as a graduate student in 1958 under the mentorship of C. Vann Woodward at Johns
Hopkins University. But it was not the war McPherson focused on then. His subjects for study
were the abolitionists whose passions and protests helped put Abraham Lincoln in office and
shape the social reforms brought about by the war. While McPherson studied in Baltimore,
events similar to the abolition movement were taking place all around the country. "I was struck
by all of these parallels between what was a freedom crusade of the 1860s and a freedom crusade
of the 1960s. My first entrée in Civil War scholarship focused on that very theme," says
McPherson. His dissertation about the abolition movement went on to be published in 1964 as
The Struggle for Equality: Abolitionists and the Negro in the Civil War and Reconstruction.
He has since written several books about abolition, the war, Abraham Lincoln, and
Reconstruction. His latest work, which won the Lincoln Prize for 1998, For Cause and
Comrades: Why Men Fought in the Civil War, delves into the hearts and minds of the three
2000NEHAnnualReport4
million soldiers that fought on both sides of the war. A decade earlier, his book Battle Cry of
Freedom: The Civil War Era broke ground in combining the complexities of the war while
maintaining the narrative that made it appealing to the American public. Battle Cry of Freedom
went on to win the Pulitzer Prize and has since sold more than six hundred thousand copies. The
book helped launch an unprecedented national renaissance of interest in the Civil War. Because
of it and other books, followed closely by Ken Burns's documentary, now thousands of
Americans every year choose to visit historic battlefields and homes of Civil War generals and
leaders. New histories, biographies, miniseries, novels, and reenactments continue to capture the
American imagination about the turbulent years between 1861 and 1865, partly because, as
McPherson explains, the issues that caused the war are still with us. "Even though the war
resolved the issues of Union and slavery, it didn't entirely resolve the issues that underlay those
two questions," McPherson said. "These issues are still important in American society today:
regionalism, resentment of centralized government, debates about how powerful the national
government ought to be and what role it ought to play in people's lives. The continuing relevance
of those issues, I think, is one reason for the continuing fascination with the Civil War."
McPherson has taught at Princeton University since 1962 and is the George Henry Davis '86
Professor of American History. He lives in New Jersey with his wife Patricia.

National Humanities Medal
In December 2000, President Clinton awarded twelve Americans the National Humanities Medal
for their outstanding efforts to deepen public awareness of the humanities.
Robert Bellah is a sociologist, philosopher, and interpreter of contemporary American society.
In his book Habits of the Heart: Individualism and Commitment in American Life, Bellah
compared how Americans believe they ought to live with how they actually conduct their lives.
Beginning his career with a focus on Eastern religion and Far Eastern languages, Bellah taught
Islamic studies at McGill University in Canada and at Harvard before joining the faculty at the
University of California, Berkeley. Bellah retired in 1997 and is Elliot Professor of Sociology
Emeritus at Berkeley.
Will Davis Campbell is a Southern preacher whose ideas and actions crossed color lines during
the Civil Rights movement. After being ordained in the Baptist church at the age of seventeen,
Campbell went on to study at Yale Divinity School. During the 1950s and 60s, he was at the
center of the Civil Rights movement, as a troubleshooter on race relations for the National
Council of Churches and then as director of the Committee of Southern Churchmen. He helped
escort nine African American students through mobs opposed to desegregation at Central High
School in Little Rock, Arkansas, and was the only white minister asked by Martin Luther King
Jr. to attend the creation of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. Campbell is the
author of sixteen books and has received the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Tennessee
American Civil Liberties Union.
Television producer Judy Crichton believes that "history is filled with magnificent stories," and
as the founder of the American Experience series on PBS has worked to bring history to
television. During her tenure with the series she produced the documentaries Andrew Carnegie:
The Richest Man in the World, The Donner Party, and Lindbergh. She and the American
Experience have won four George Foster Peabody awards, two Alfred I. DuPont-Columbia
Journalism awards, and seven Emmys. Crichton's early television career took off when she
became the first woman writer and producer for CBS Reports in 1974. She went on to become a
writer and producer for ABC's Closeup documentary unit. She told NEH Chairman William R.
Ferris, "Among the things I am most proud of is working on projects that had enough time to be
achieve a piece of work in a thoughtful way."
David C. Driskell is an art collector, educator, and curator who has devoted himself to
preserving cultural traditions by collecting African American art and artifacts from the era of
slave ships to modern times. By buying and preserving pieces outside the "quality canon,"
Driskell has helped change art collecting trends in collections around the world. He was a teacher
and curator at the University of Maryland for more than twenty years. He has curated numerous
exhibitions, lectured throughout the country, and taught around the globe including Abafemi
Awolowo University in Nigeria. Driskell is the recipient three Rockefeller Foundation
fellowships.
The novels of Ernest J. Gaines evoke the essence of small-town southern Louisiana in the early
part of the twentieth century. He is renowned for his tales about Bayonne, Louisiana, based on
2000NEHAnnualReport6
Pointe Coupee Parish, where Gaines spent his childhood and early adolescence. He gained fame
for his book The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman, based on a fictional, hundred-year-old
former slave. His most recent work, A Lesson Before Dying, takes place in the 1940s, and depicts
the struggle of an educated black man whose highest achievement is limited to being a school
teacher. Gaines has been author-in-residence at the University of Louisiana-Lafayette since
1983.
As the director of the Guam Humanities Council since 1992, Herman T. Guerrero has worked
to reclaim the islands' colonial history and the legacy of the Chamorro people. One of his and the
council's efforts is the Genealogy Project, which is being conducted with the help of the
University of Guam's Micronesian Area Research Center. Another project he helped create with
the Northern Mariana Island Museum of History is called "Spain in the Marianas: First Contact
and Aftermath." Guerrero says, "The humanities and humanities education allows the indigenous
people of the Northern Mariana Island Archipelago a rediscovery and an affirmation of native
identity."
Through a career that spans fifty years of arranging, writing, and performing American music,
Quincy Jones has been a champion for African American artists and a voice for humanitarian
causes. He has written scores for thirty-three motion pictures and co-produced the film version of
Alice Walker's The Color Purple. "Everything starts with a story or a song," says Jones. "Once
you have a great story, you look for the elements you need to make a piece of art." Jones has
received twenty-six Grammy Awards and one Emmy, produced NetAid concerts, and founded
Listen Up, which has brought youth from South Central Los Angeles to build houses in South
Africa. Jones serves as a member of the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities.
Barbara Kingsolver sees literature as a way of spreading awareness of injustices in the world
through the telling of a good story. Her 1998 novel, Poisonwood Bible, is the story of a
missionary family caught in the turmoil of the Belgian Congo in 1959. On one level it is the
story of the dissolution of a family, while on another it deals head-on with themes of colonialism,
religion, and racism. Kingsolver's belief in the power of literature led her establish the
Bellwether Prize for Fiction, awarded biannually for a first novel that represents outstanding
literary quality and a commitment to social change.
Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison says "All my life I have been teaching books, writing books,
or reading books." Her own novels tackle difficult subjects: in Beloved she tells the story of a
runaway slave who chose to kill her own child instead of letting her spend a life in bondage; in
The Bluest Eye she depicts a black adolescent impregnated by her father. Morrison has been
inspired to write nonfiction about controversial subjects of our times especially when they
broach issues of power, race, and gender, such the O.J. Simpson trial and the Clarence Thomas
hearings. As the Robert F. Coheen Professor in the Council of Humanities at Princeton
University, Morrison has taught students how to look beyond the surface for the true human
story embedded in history.
Historian Edmund S. Morgan has written and edited eighteen books on the intellectual
foundations of early American life. In his latest work, The Rise of Popular Sovereignty in
England and America, Morgan says that the popular control of governm
ent is a largely fictional
2000NEHAnnualReport7
concept, but a belief essential to our system of government. At eighty-four, he is the Sterling
Professor of History at Yale University. He also taught at the University of Chicago and Brown
University before arriving at Yale in 1955. His topics of research have ranged from the Puritans
in New England to the slave-owners in the colonial South. "In the end," Morgan says, "history
can't get too far from questions of power, who has power and how they wield it."
Earl Shorris believes that understanding the words of Socrates and Plato helps the poor more
than learning the skills for a technical job. As a result, in 1995 Shorris created a program of study
known as the Clemente Course to bring the humanities to residents of impoverished inner-city
neighborhoods. The program, run by Bard College in New York City, has spread to fourteen
different courses-on political philosophy, American history, classics, and others--around the
country. "The humanities have a great appeal to give people a sense of self, to see the world and
themselves differently," he says.
For thirty years Virginia Driving Hawk Sneve has written children's books with the intention of
dispelling stereotypes and negative images of American Indians. Her books include Jimmy
Yellow Hawk, published in 1972, and more recently The Trickster and the Troll, which combines
Lakota and Norwegian folklore. "I write from my own experience and about Native Americans
I've known all my life," she says. Sneve is the daughter of an Episcopal priest and Lakota Sioux
mother. She grew up on the Rosebud Reservation of South Dakota and was an English teacher
and counselor in Rapid City public schools and at the Flandreau Indian School for forty years.

Division of Education Programs
The Division of Education Programs provides national leadership for formal humanities
education, from elementary through graduate school. Six programs help teachers bring their
knowledge into the classroom.
Two programs fall under Education Development and Demonstration. The first, National
Education Projects, supports the development of educational materials of national significance.
In collaboration with high school and college faculty and regional museum educators, North
Shore Community College in Massachusetts will develop and beta-test an interactive website for
teaching about the life and work of nineteenth-century American author Nathaniel Hawthorne.
The website includes documents, art work, photographs, and artifacts to support the study of
Hawthorne in literature, history, and American studies courses in high schools and colleges. The
second program, Humanities Focus Grants, promotes learning among groups of teachers working
together in the same or neighboring institutions. The Rochelle Lee Fund, a nonprofit educational
agency, will conduct a series of reading and discussion sessions for twenty Chicago public
school faculty members about children's and adult literature with the theme of life's "Journey."
At the end of their study, participants will receive a voucher for quality paperback children's
books for use in the classroom.
The Schools for a New Millennium program enables elementary and secondary schoolteachers to
learn to use technology in their studying and teaching of the humanities. Rice University
received support for a project at Hogg Middle School, a diverse inner city school in Houston, to
examine their community through its history, and its state, national, and global contexts. As a
part of the project, students learn about World War II by using videotape and digital technology
to interview veterans and neighbors about their experiences during the war. The project is the
outcome of an earlier NEH planning grant that involved the school, the university, the Texas
State Historical Association, and other community partners. The project will link the curriculum
and website development to the state teaching and learning standards at each grade level.
Seminars and Institutes support faculty development projects each summer at colleges,
universities, and research centers. During the summer of 2001, Michael Bachem of Miami
University in Ohio will conduct a four-week seminar for kindergarten through ninth-grade
teachers on the tales collected by brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. This seminar looks at the
universality of folk and fairy tales, describes the details of the historical background of the
Grimm tales, and makes participants aware of research tools and scholarship of folklore studies.
The seminar will give teachers classroom strategies for teaching the subject.
The division conducted a special competition in FY 2000 called Humanities Scholars in
Residence. This program was for states that have received a disproportionately low share of
funds from the Endowment and for schools that have not benefited from our regular grant
programs. These small consultant grants enable elementary and secondary schools to work with
expert humanities scholars to lay the foundation for improvements of school curricula. Montana's
Corvallis School District Number 1 received support for a mentored program of study with a
prominent scholar of Western history on Montana history and literature, focusing on the
recurring historical displacement of people in the area and the battle for resources. The school
2000NEHAnnualReport9
has encouraged students to interview inhabitants of the Bitterroot Valley, to conduct related
research on the history of the area, and to bring the results of their inquiry back to a virtual
museum online.
Finally, in collaboration with the NEH Office of Enterprise, WorldCom, and the Council of the
Great City Schools, the Division of Education Programs sponsors EDSITEment
(edsitement.neh.gov), a popular online resource for humanities educators. EDSITEment
comprises seventy-one individual humanities websites, each nominated by a peer review panel
for its content, interactive design, and usefulness in the classroom. EDSITEment has received
national recognition, including an education award in the Smithsonian Computerworld
competition. The site currently logs an average of forty thousand user sessions a month, and
includes a search engine, lesson plans for grades six through twelve, and take-home activities for
students. EDSITEment training sessions have been held in 973 schools in forty-one school
districts. In the future, EDSITEment will expand to include more websites and new lesson plans
for kindergarten through sixth-grade.

Division of Preservation and Access
The Division of Preservation and Access provides leadership and support to preserve humanities
collections in America's libraries, museums, archives, and historical organizations. The Division
also helps ensure intellectual access to these collections for research, education, and public
programming in the humanities. Grants support the creation of major reference works--
dictionaries, atlases, encyclopedias, and databases--that document the history and culture of the
United States and the world.
In fiscal year 2000, the division completed the twelfth year of an initiative for the preservation of
brittle books and serials. When the thirty-six microfilming projects (eight funded this year) at
libraries are finished, the intellectual content of approximately 992,300 embrittled volumes and
435,000 pages of foreign newsprint will be preserved.
Newspapers chronicle the daily life of America's citizens across the country. They document the
civic, legal, historical, and cultural events that have occurred in every region of the nation during
the past three hundred years. All fifty states, two U.S. territories, and the District of Columbia
are now involved in the Endowment's United States Newspaper Program, a national initiative to
catalog and preserve on microfilm the country's newspapers on a state-by-state basis. At the
conclusion of currently funded NEH newspaper projects, more than 146,800 newspaper titles
will be available in a national database and approximately 60.5 million deteriorating newspaper
pages will have been transferred onto microfilm.
Grants made in fiscal year 2000 also preserve, stabilize, and provide intellectual access to a
variety of museum, archival, and other collections that are important for the study of American
cultural, social, economic, ethnic, military, and political history; African and African American
history and culture; native Alaskan history; Jewish history and culture; the history of art,
architecture, and music; and the history of colonial Spanish America. The collections represent a
range of formats including architectural drawings; textiles; historic wallpaper; rare books and
pamphlets; correspondence, manuscripts, and other documents; maps; photographs, glass plate
negatives and moving images; musical scores; sound recordings; and artifacts. The grants
provide preservation and access activities at 151 institutions in forty-seven states, the District of
Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
Among the research tools and reference works that received support this year are projects to
create historical dictionaries, including the Dictionary of Old English, the Comprehensive
Aramaic Lexicon, and the Pennsylvania Sumerian Dictionary. A grant to the University of
Chicago provided support to produce the final volumes of the Chicago Assyrian Dictionary.
Support went for two multivolume, international encyclopedias-the Encyclopædia Iranica and
the Encyclopedia of Islam. The Encyclopedia of Islam will be completed with this grant. Among
the bibliographical works supported are the English Short Title Catalog, Black African Literature
in English, 1997-1999, and the Répertoire International de la Presse Musicale (RIPM). By
supporting the updating of existing databases to current standards, the Division will broaden the
use of important electronic resources. The PhiloBiblon Project will make available via the World
Wide Web a bio-bibliographical database of Iberian medieval and early modern culture; the
Thesaurus Linguae Graecae will adopt new text encoding formats and develop software for
2000NEHAnnualReport27
network distribution of its extensive database of Greek literature, currently available on CD-
ROM. In addition, the Forest History Society will expand and update a bibliographical database
of more than twenty-five thousand entries on environmental history, making it available on the
World Wide Web for the benefit of researchers and students seeking to explore humans'
relationship to nature.
To foster the next generation of libraries, the NEH joined other federal agencies in sponsoring
the Digital Library Initiative, conducted by the National Science Foundation. In fiscal year 2000,
the Endowment's participation in this initiative supported five projects for the preservation and
accessibility of humanities resources in digital form. These projects directly relate to the creation
and use of humanities resources for the study of American history, classical music, philosophy,
ancient Sumerian culture, and Chinese language and philosophy.
A new grant category, Preservation Assistance Grants, began in 2000 to reach organizations that
do not usually compete for NEH funding. Awards of up to $5,000 support preservation
assessments, consultations, training, and supplies and equipment. In this first year, the awards
went to 132 institutions in 41 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. One example is
the Old Mission State Park, Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation, in Cataloo, which
received a grant of $3,916 to hire a conservator who will conduct an on-site assessment and help
draft a long-range plan to preserve the park's collections. The Skokomish Indian Tribe in
Shelton, Washington received a grant of $5,000 to consult with a conservator, who will help the
staff create a plan for the storage of the tribal center's collections. The University of South
Alabama in Mobile, Alabama, received a $5,000 grant to identify the preservation needs of the
university's archives.

Division of Public Programs
The Division of Public Programs expands understanding of the humanities through engaging and
substantive projects that encourage lifelong learning. The projects include interpretive
exhibitions and catalogs, radio and television programs, reading and film discussion groups,
symposia, conferences, and interactive multimedia. The Division encourages projects that forge
partnerships among cultural institutions and community-based groups, use innovative and
accessible technology, explore ideas with regional or national significance, and reach new
audiences.
Museum exhibitions funded in fiscal year 2000 range in topic from ancient Greece to space
travel, from Papua New Guinea to the Rocky Mountains, from fishing and boating to the legacy
of Michelangelo, from manor houses to wax museums. The Mint Museum in Charlotte, North
Carolina, received a grant to mount a traveling exhibition called The Sport of Life and Death:
The Mesoamerican Ballgame. The show will explore a fundamental feature of ancient
Mesoamerican cultural history--a popular team sport that inspired ancient artists to create great
works glorifying the sport and its athletes. An accompanying website will feature virtual tours of
archaeological sites, an interactive ballgame, and images of works in the exhibition. An online
guide for teachers, with suggested classroom activities and student worksheets, will also be
available.
Library programs funded by the Division in 2000 include reading and film discussion programs,
panel exhibitions, a web-based exhibition, and a radio call-in program. The American Library
Association's "StoryLines America: A Radio/Library Partnership Exploring Our Regional
Literature" consists of thirteen one-hour radio call-in programs on books related to the Midwest.
Broadcast throughout the region, each program focuses on a book selected by scholars and
features discussions with historians, storytellers, literary critics, and other guests. All programs
are taped and made available to libraries and individuals. Four earlier series were produced on
the literature of the Northwest, Southwest, California, and the coastal Southeast.
A grant initiative was available for libraries to take advantage of two proven programs. Building
on the success of the American Library Association's first "Let's Talk About It" reading and
discussion programs, twenty libraries throughout the country received direct grants to host the
next generation of these programs. Grants went to forty libraries nationwide to host a traveling
version of a larger exhibition, "The Great Experiment: George Washington and the American
Republic." The exhibition is accompanied by curriculum guides, an interpretive catalog, CD-
ROM and website downloads, brochures, and training for library staff members. Based on the
resources of the Huntington Library and the Morgan Library, the exhibition examines
Washington's career, from the early years through his relinquishing of power.
In fiscal year 2000, the Jewish Women's Archive received a Special Projects grant to plan for
community-based oral history projects in three cities. It will incorporate an interactive website
and online archive of Jewish women's stories. Topics include domestic culture, life cycle and
family roles, friendships and social networks, and Jewish culture and religion. The oral history
projects will result in local exhibitions in the year 2004, the 350th anniversary of the first Jewish
community on North American shores.
2000NEHAnnualReport49
Radio and film projects funded in fiscal year 2000 will explore such topics as the history of
religion in America, the international anti-apartheid movement, the golden age of Yiddish radio,
and the lives of Benjamin Franklin and F. Scott Fitzgerald. One grant went to the Capital of
Texas Public Telecommunications Council to produce a four-hour documentary film series on
the development and use of the English language in contemporary America. The series will
explore how Americans use their language and what it tells us about our culture. The producers
plan to develop a companion book, an interactive website, and outreach programs.
As the convergence of television and the Internet becomes a reality, a new digital television
initiative was launched to ensure that the humanities are integrated into programs with enhanced
digital content. This initiative was jointly supported with the Corporation for Public
Broadcasting and marks the first time that the two organizations have collaborated on humanities
programming. The Division made four prototype development grants for films on topics such as
Woodrow Wilson's presidency and the Chinese Cultural Revolution. The Division's newest grant
category, Consultation Grants, expanded its funding to institutions in states earmarked by the
NEH-wide Extending the Reach initiative. The fifty projects receiving these $10,000 awards
include a radio series on American dialects, an exhibition on Caribbean music, and a website on
folklore.

Division of Research Programs
The Division of Research Programs helps advance knowledge and understanding of human
history, language, and culture. The Division funds individual research for up to a year of full-
time study through three programs: NEH Fellowships, Extending the Reach Faculty Research
Awards, and Summer Stipends. Through Fellowship Programs at Independent Research
Institutions, scholars gain access to valuable research collections, such as those of the Folger
Library and the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, or insight into foreign or
ancient cultures through organizations such as the International Research and Exchanges Board
(IREX). Through the Collaborative Research program, the Division funds long-term projects,
including a number of prominent scholarly editions--such as the presidential papers of George
Washington and Dwight D. Eisenhower--and projects that explore large issues in the humanities.
As an example of the latter, the College of Charleston received $50,000 to support a conference
on the practice of releasing slaves in several colonial empires of the Atlantic world. As one NEH
peer evaluator commented, this topic is of supreme importance because "as a means by which
the enslaved gained freedom, manumission has been neglected in comparison with escape,
revolt, and general emancipation." The four-day conference, held in October 2000, drew scholars
from the United States, Canada, England, Latin American, the Netherlands, and South Africa. To
facilitate discussion, participants mounted their papers in advance on the Web. A volume of
selected papers will be published by the University of South Carolina Press.
The School of American Research, a center for advanced study in anthropology and related
disciplines in Santa Fe, New Mexico, supports scholars studying human culture and society and
serves as a resource for American Indian artists. During the last ten years NEH-supported
fellows have come to the School of American Research from public and private institutions in
sixteen states. The 2000 NEH fellows' topics included studying the differences between the
eastern and western pueblos of the Rio Grande valley, observing economic and cultural
influences on the intergenerational transmission of weaving patterns among the Maya, and
researching Andean cosmology in the Inca Empire.
The vigorous, multifaceted nature of individual humanities research is apparent in one scholar's
efforts to connect local and regional stories to world themes. Gregory H. Maddox of Texas
Southern University received an Extending the Reach Faculty Research Award to look at how
oral narrative and written texts of the Gogo people exist in dialog with each other and with meta-
narratives about Tanzania and even all of Africa. The study promises to show the balance of
community with nationality, and of history with the way people remember events.
Humanities researchers often try to illuminate current issues by tracing the origin and
development of related practices and beliefs. Stephen Harnett of the University of Illinois, for
example, received a Summer Stipend for a project that asks, first, how did antebellum Americans
debate the relationships among crime, justice, and capital punishment; and second, what do their
rhetorical strategies tell us about democracy itself? Harnett's research will culminate in Executing
Democracy: The Enlightenment and the Death Penalty in America, 1750-1846, to be published
by Duke University Press. Another project of an NEH fellow, John Kincaid of Lafayette College,
focuses on the fifty U.S. state constitutions as they reflect "changing conceptions of democratic
2000NEHAnnualReport74
governance and applications of democratic beliefs." This project is designed to include state
court rulings on constitutional issues, rulings that reveal the operative theories of democratic
government on the state level. The significance of Kincaid's study is enhanced by the fact that
the US state constitutions have often served as models for democratic constitution-making
abroad.

Office of Challenge Grants
The programs for institutional development administered through the NEH Office of Challenge
Grants contribute to the strength of the humanities throughout the nation. The title program,
Challenge Grants, encourages nonfederal support for the humanities to assist cultural
organizations and academic institutions in strengthening their humanities resources over the long
term. These grants involve three types of challenges. Applicants are challenged to engage in
long-term strategic planning for improved research, teaching, preservation, and public
programming in the humanities. Grantees are also challenged to raise, in nonfederal
contributions, three or four times the amount of federal funds offered. Finally, potential donors
are challenged to recognize and support excellent humanities activities crucial to the educational
and cultural life of their communities and the nation.
NEH Challenge Grants are most commonly used to establish new or augment existing
endowments, which will support humanities needs permanently. For example, Oglala Lakota
College in South Dakota received in fiscal year 2000 the first installment of its $500,000
challenge (matching $1.5 million in nonfederal donations) to establish an endowment that will
fund professorships in Lakota studies and Lakota language. This tribal college prepares Lakota
language teachers for twenty-two schools on Lakota/Dakota reservations. Another project at the
Center for History and New Media at George Mason University in Fairfax,Virginia, explores
ways new technology can enhance teaching and research in history. Its grant of $500,000 with its
matching $1.5 million in nonfederal funds will create an endowment of $2 million to support
postdoctoral, graduate, and faculty fellowships as well as software acquisitions and upgrades.
Another endowment began when Alabama State University received this year the first $83,000
of its $500,000 Challenge Grant to endow a Center for the Study of Civil Rights and African
American Culture. The endowment income will enable the center to preserve manuscripts and
artifacts and gather oral histories documenting the contributions of African American activists,
churches, benevolent societies, and other organizations central to the Civil Rights Movement.
Grantees use challenge funds for acquisitions, construction and renovation, and technological
enhancement when the need is related to long-term improvements in the humanities. For
example, the Peter White Public Library in Marquette, Michigan, received in FY 2000 the first of
three installments of its $300,000 challenge grant (to match $900,000 in nonfederal donations)
for construction and furnishing of a new wing for the library, the largest on Michigan's Upper
Peninsula. These improvements to the 1904 facility will help the library meet increased demand
for service and new technology as well as restore historic portions of the building to their
original appearance. Direct expenditures are often combined with endowments, as in the case of
Canterbury Shaker Village in New Hampshire. It received a challenge offer of $500,000,
matching $2 million in nonfederal funds, to endow humanities programming, construct a visitor
education center, and help restore the Shakerd dwelling house.
The Office of Challenge Grants also administers the grant competition to establish ten Regional
Humanities Centers across the nation. Through programs of regional studies in collaboration
with other humanities organizations in the region--such as state humanities councils, museums,
libraries, and schools--each center will serve as a locus for understanding regional culture and
history and their place in American and world culture. Two planning grants of $50,000 were
2000NEHAnnualReport115
awarded in each of ten regions in fiscal year 2000. From these, one will be selected in each
region for an implementation award requiring a three-to-one match; the award will provide
permanent support for the center's activities.
A new program in the Office of Challenge Grants began, with the first awards to be given in
2001. Extending the Reach Institutional Grants will help strengthen the humanities at
Historically Black, Hispanic-Serving, and Tribal Colleges and Universities by providing outright
grants of up to $25,000. Like other programs in the Office of Challenge Grants, these awards
will contribute to the enduring strength of institutions vital to the overall health of the humanities
throughout the nation.

Federal State Partnership
Through the Office of Federal/State Partnership, NEH and the fifty-six state humanities councils
work to enable all of the nation's citizens, wherever they live, to benefit from locally designed
humanities programs on their particular concerns, interests, and needs. The partnership of NEH
and the state humanities councils increases the public's awareness of and participation in the
humanities.
State humanities councils are nonprofit organizations that operate in all fifty states, the District
of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands, American Samoa, and Guam. Through the Partnership, NEH funds are given annually to
the councils to support locally initiated programs on a competitive basis. Councils also design
and conduct initiatives themselves to bring excellent humanities programs and services
throughout each state and territory. In all their activities, state humanities councils sponsor and
support the pursuit and enjoyment of education and lifelong learning.
In 2000, councils supported thousands of programs that reached millions of Americans: among
them were 1,920 Chautauqua-type performances; 1,800 exhibitions; 4,000 film, television, or
radio programs; 4,500 speakers bureau presentations; 360 cultural tourism projects; 2,000
literacy programs; 5,000 reading and discussion programs; and 2,000 teacher institutes and
workshops. More than 20,000 scholars were involved in council projects and council grants.
Encouraging reading is characteristic of state humanities councils. Sponsorship of large-scale
book festivals is the public side of this commitment. Literacy, reading, and literature programs
are the personal side, cultivating and nurturing individual readers. Many councils feature literacy
and reading programs at the core of their programming. In 2000, the Vermont Council on the
Humanities supported grassroots literacy efforts in twenty-nine communities with book mobiles,
a literacy fair, and a weekly children's-literacy radio program. The Prime Time Family Reading
Time program of the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities introduces families to children's
books and encourages the participants to become comfortable in libraries. It won a "Coming Up
Taller" award in 2000 from the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities. Since its
inception, twenty-eight councils have adopted Prime Time programs.
Councils are important engines of civic discourse. Through its New Books for New Readers
program, the Kentucky Humanities Council published Ronald W. Eades's Fights for Rights. The
book has special value for adults learning English and working to acquire US citizenship. The
Utah Humanities Council's Front Porch Discussion Series addresses issues of diversity, the good
society, and growth. The civic culture initiative of the Montana Committee for the Humanities,
which helped plan the 2000 Governor's Conference on Civic Engagement, has developed a
website (www.civicmontana.org) of resources on civil society and democratic renewal. "Parallel
and Crossover Lives" is the Texas Humanities Council's community-based oral history and
cultural-preservation project that examines Texas history and culture before and after public
school desegregation. The archive of historical information it began creating in 2000 will be used
for research and public programming, and to foster discussion among disparate community
groups.
2000NEHAnnualReport126
Councils place a high priority on improving the statewide quality of humanities teaching and
learning in the elementary and secondary grades. The Georgia Humanities Council's Center for
Character Education responded to the Georgia General Assembly's curriculum requirement by
providing character education concepts, resources, and practices from its humanities collections
for educators, policy makers, parents, and communities. The councils in Georgia, Hawai'i,
Maryland, Nevada, and New Mexico sponsor their state's History Day program and competition,
which fosters academic achievement and intellectual growth in sixth to twelfth graders. Twenty-
seven winners of New Mexico History Day competed with more than twenty-one hundred
students from all over the United States at the National History Day competition at the
University of Maryland, College Park.
Making humanities education and lifelong learning a hallmark of American life is a pillar of the
partnership between NEH and the state humanities councils. The sponsorship of the Bard
College Clemente Course in the Humanities by councils in Alaska, Florida, Illinois,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Oklahoma and Washington provides topflight educational
opportunities to disadvantaged adults. A member of one of the Washington Commission for the
Humanities' Clemente classes confirms that, "Being in this class and learning about Plato--just to
begin thinking about those things--really opens me up mentally to places I wouldn't have gone by
myself. It enriches my life on a daily basis."
As they pursue their goal of engaging all Americans in study, reflection, and discussion of the
humanities, state humanities councils continue to strengthen their organizational structures and to
build partnerships in order to expand their resources and audiences. Last year councils were
successful in obtaining more than $20 million from state legislatures, individuals, corporations,
foundations, and other sources.

Office of Enterprise
The Office of Enterprise strengthens the Endowment's leadership in the humanities, advances its
programs, and supports special initiatives by forging strategic partnerships with state and federal
agencies, private organizations, and philanthropic individuals. Under authority granted by
Congress, the Enterprise Office focused its 2000 efforts on supplementing the NEH's annual
federal appropriation with charitable contributions, grants, and corporate partnerships to help
bring the humanities to people of all backgrounds across the nation.
Throughout the year, the Enterprise Office worked closely with NEH's Office of Public Affairs
to promote My History Is America's History, developed in partnership with the White House
Millennium Council with principal support from Genealogy.com and launched in November
1999. My History encourages Americans to discover, preserve, and share their family stories as
integral parts of the nation's history. Educational and outreach tools created for the project
include a website (www.myhistory.org) and a printed guidebook, subtitled 15 Things You Can
Do To Save America's Stories. During the course of the year, people learned about My History
through features in major newspapers--from the Los Angeles Times to the Atlanta Journal-
Constitution--and on radio and television programs--from the Antiques Roadshow on PBS to
Heritage Hunt on ABC affiliates across the nation. More than 450,000 visited the My History
website, while nearly one thousand other websites created links to My History, as a resource for
elementary and secondary education and other purposes. MyHistory.org was named the New
York Times "Site of the Day"; the "Too Cool School Site of the Week" by WorldVillage; and one
of "The Web's Best Sites" by Britannica Online. The My History guidebook was awarded a
Distinguished Achievement Award from the Association of Educational Publishers and first
prize for a soft-cover publication from the National Association of Government Communicators.
NEH worked with its partners--including the Federation of Genealogical Societies, the National
Council of Negro Women's Black Family Reunion, National History Day, the Community
College Humanities Association, 4-H clubs, and state humanities councils--to distribute eighty-
five thousand guidebooks, including two copies to each of the nation's 16,227 libraries, to make
the materials available in every American community.
On other fronts during 2000, the Enterprise Office worked with the NEH's Division of Public
Programs to secure a $1 million grant from Carnegie Corporation of New York for The
Millennium Project for Public Libraries. These funds support a partnership of NEH, The Library
of America, and the American Library Association helping eight hundred small libraries build
their collection of American writing and expand opportunities for educational programs. The
libraries will be awarded fifty recently published volumes in The Library of America, the
distinguished series of the nation's foremost writers, with support for public programs using the
volumes. The project represents the first time NEH has administered a program entirely via the
Internet, with applications both accepted and reviewed online.

Together the Enterprise Office and the NEH Division of Education secured a renewed
commitment totaling $700,000 from the WorldCom Foundation to fund an additional three years
of EDSITEment (edsitement.neh.gov), the educational website launched in 1997 by NEH, MCI
WorldCom, and the Council of the Great City Schools. The renewed funding will allow the
number of websites that are part of this portal for teachers and students to double, from one
hundred to two hundred, and will provide for development of lesson plans for kindergarten
through fifth grade.
The Office of Enterprise also worked with NEH's Division of Education to secure a renewed
commitment of $50,000 from the Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation to expand a pilot program
aimed at strengthening middle- and high-school teaching of the humanities. The Humanities
Scholar in Residence Program brings outside humanities educators into selected New Jersey
schools to serve as consultants for improving the schools' humanities curriculum. The grant will
support efforts to increase the impact and sustainability of the program in additional New Jersey
schools.
Throughout 2000, the Enterprise Office continued its work with the NEH Chairman and Office
of Challenge Grants to develop support for the NEH Regional Humanities Centers Initiative,
which will create a network of major centers across the nation for research and public education
about the diverse characteristics of each region, such as local history, people, cultures, language,
landscape, and architecture. These efforts build upon NEH's success during 1999 in raising
$1,000,000 from sources external to the agency, including private donors and one independent
federal agency, the Appalachian Regional Commission.
A joint project between the NEH and Mount Rushmore National Memorial, NEH's first
permanent partnership with a National Park Service site, was completed in 2000 with the
installation and dedication of four exhibits on the Presidential Trail. These exhibits provide
historical information about the Mount Rushmore presidents, George Washington, Thomas
Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt, and feature images and quotations from
the presidents as well as quotations from Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor of Mount Rushmore. The
South Dakota Humanities Council helped fund this project, intended to reach the 3.25 million
annual visitors to Mount Rushmore.
Finally, an Enterprise grant made to the Historical Society of Washington, D.C., in 1998 bore
fruit during the year in the publication of a map titled "Washington, D.C. Beyond the
Monuments." The map is a tool to encourage Washington's twenty million annual visitors to
participate in the city's rich cultural resources. It is being distributed by the Washington Area
Metropolitan Transit Authority ( WMATA) along with eleven complementary brochures of
Washington D.C.'s neighborhood cultural resources. The project is part of a city-wide heritage
tourism and economic development partnership of NEH, the Historical Society, the WMATA,
the Washington Convention Center Authority, and the D.C. Heritage Tourism Coalition.

NEH Summer Fellows Program
The purpose of the NEH Summer Fellows Program is to acquaint promising college students in
the humanities with the policies, programs, and operations of the National Endowment for the
Humanities. Under the guidance of the agency's professional staff, fellows participated in the
work of the Endowment for eleven weeks during the summer of 2000. Each fellow was assigned
to one program division or office of the agency to assist in daily work and to undertake a special
project. Summer Fellows also had opportunities to learn about the work of similar federal
agencies and cultural institutions. Each of the fellows received a $4,000 grant.
