In: PS: political science & politics, Volume 44, Issue 3, p. 690-690

Abstract

The Centennial Center for Political Science and Public Affairs is an
invaluable resource to political and social scientists. Since its
opening in September 2003, the Center has housed more than 100
scholars. The center, located in the APSA headquarters near Dupont
Circle, provides a great base of operations for scholars researching
in the DC metro area. The Center offers visiting scholars furnished
work space, telephone, fax, computers, Internet access, conference
space, a reference library, and access to George Washington
University's Gelman Library. Visiting scholar stays range from a few
days to 12 months. Space is limited to APSA members and is available
for faculty members, postdoctoral fellows, and advanced graduate
students from the United States and abroad. Scholars are expected to
cover their own expenses and a modest facilities fee for the use of
the center. Prospective visiting scholars may apply at any time.
Positions are awarded on a space-available basis. Full details on
the center and the Visiting Scholars Program are online at http://www.apsanet.org/centennialcenter. You may also
