NLCSD Fellows

2011 NLCSD Fellows Awarded

NLCSD would like to express its gratitude to the Application and Application Review Committee members for all their hard work in revising the application form and criteria and the thorough review, rating and paneling of all the applicants. 

NLCSD is very pleased to announce the new Fellows, along with the names of the Universities to which they applied and have been accepted.  This year, we are accepting two fellows who applied for the first cohort and who proceeded to start programs without the NLCSD Fellowship.  They are in very good standing and will join the first cohort this summer.  Therefore Cohort 1 will have 14 Fellows as will Cohort 2.

Please join us in welcoming all the new NLCSD Fellows and Congratulations to all.  They will meet together for the first time this summer just prior to the OSEP Project Directors Meeting in Washington, DC.

Please join us in congratulating the 2010 NCLSD Fellows.

These 12 NLCSD were selected by the NLCSD Applications Review Committee from among 43 applicants, demonstrating the high interest among teachers, administrators and other service providers of infants, children and youth who are blind/visually impaired, deaf/hard of hearing, and deafblind to pursue doctoral degrees.   These fellows will begin their doctoral programs in late summer or early fall at the NLCSD University Consortium Universities of their choice and to which they have been accepted.

The application for the 2011 NLCSD Fellows will be posted by June 1, 2010. Completed applications will be due no later than December 31, 2010.

The National Leadership Consortium in Sensory Disabilities is funded in part by the U. S. Department of Education, Office of Special Education Programs.  H325V090001

At this time NLCSD is sorry to announce the resignation of Dr. Harold Johnson, Michigan State University as the Director of Research for the NLCSD.   We hope to announce an additional member of the NLCSD Core Leadership Team representing the Deaf/Hard of Hearing Community shortly.   We appreciate all the work Dr. Johnson has contributed to the project.  He will be missed.
