The Society for Technical Communication (STC) welcomes applications for
Special Opportunities Grants to support projects which develop and
communicate new information about the art and science of technical
communication. We encourage proposals for such educational projects as
pilot programs, new high school and college curricula, or innovative
teaching methods.
STC's Special Opportunities Committee awards one-time grant funding for
amounts up to $10,000. Deadlines for applications are October 15, 1999 and
