ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú

Our Institute will take place on the ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University - Oxford, Ohio campus during the last two weeks in June. Participants will get to enjoy our beautiful campus, with historic academic buildings, well-appointed residence halls, classroom spaces, campus quads, and amenities.

Participants will have the opportunity to stay in our residence hall rooms, as a way to get to know one another, facilitate collaboration, and enjoy free time together. We will have a block of rooms in campus residence halls reserved with a special price for our NEH cohort.

ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University’s Oxford campus in Oxford Ohio will be the center for most activities during the two-week summer institute. During the day, summer scholars and visiting faculty will have open access to the dining commons, lounge, library, and study spaces on campus. Our staff will organize and guide a field trip to a local mosque, where participants will tour the facility and hear a talk.

The COVID policy for our NEH Summer Institute will follow the guidelines of the CDC and the State of Ohio. As we know, these often change in accordance with evolving health conditions, so they will likely be updated by June. We recommend that participants be vaccinated and boosted (when eligible) and take a COVID-19 test within 72 hours of arrival. We also urge participants to follow common sense public health guidelines (no large indoor gatherings, social distancing, etc.) while outside of ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University facilities.
